BBC News - Somalia famine: WFP begins aid airlift to Mogadishu

BBC News - Somalia famine: WFP begins aid airlift to Mogadishu: "Millions in Somalia and across the Horn of Africa face dire food shortages in the worst regional drought for decades.

The Islamist al-Shabab militia, which controls much of Somalia, has banned the WFP from its areas.

The delivery was to have begun on Tuesday but was delayed from leaving Kenya by bureaucratic hurdles."
