UN offers non-food items to Somali refugees

Displaced women queue to receive non-food items from the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees at the Maajo settlement for the internally displaced people in Somalia's capital Mogadishu, August 31, 2011. More than 800,000 Somalis are refugees outside their own country, according to UN estimates, while up to 1.5 million are displaced within the Horn of Africa country. As the relief operation to reach some 3.7 million Somalis at risk of starvation is ramped up, aid groups want to focus on stemming the latest exodus. [Photo/Agencies]
