In Somalia, the U.N. has suspended food aid in the capital Mogadishu following the arrest of the top World Food Programme official there. Idris Osman was being held overnight after dozens of armed soldiers stormed the U.N. compound. No explanation was given for his arrest. The shutdown will cut off some 75,000 people from receiving aid.
