Forcible Eviction of Displaced Communities
Thousands of people are being forcibly evicted from camps for internally displaced people (IDPs) in (the centre of) Somalia’s capital, Mogadishu, where they have been sheltering from cyclical, drought, famine and ongoing conflict which have ravaged the country for more than two decades following state collapse after the fall of the Siad Barre regime in 1991. This claimed hundreds of thousands of lives and forced hundreds of thousand more from their homes.
