UN humanitarian chief Valerie Amos said today relief groups were ramping up aid delivery to tens of thousands of people affected by famine and drought in Somalia's war-riven capital Mogadishu. More than 100,000 people have fled to Mogadishu from other drought-struck Somalia regions in search of food and water, but insecurity in one of the world's most dangerous cities is hampering aid flows.  [Xinhua/AFP]
