In Somalia, heavy fighting continues to displace scores of people in the capital Mogadishu. Hundreds of thousands have been forced to flee in the clash between U.S.-backed Ethiopian forces and Somali fighters. Mohamed Yusuf Hassan, head surgeon at a Mogadishu hospital, says doctors are struggling to treat the wounded.
Mohamed Yusuf Hassan: “They get wounded far away from the hospital, and because of clashes on the streets, they cannot take the patients in time. So they have to wait many, many hours, and the patients will get complicated and most of the times get infected, that can — whatever you do, it’s difficult to make them recover. That’s another problem, another challenge, that we’re managing somehow to overcome.”
