TO GO WITH AFP STORY BY JENNY VAUGHAN
A photo taken on August 13, 2011 shows a Somali refugee transporting donated household items to tents in Ethiopia's Helaweyn camp, the world's newest refugee settlement. UN refugee agency is supplying new arrivals with the water jugs, along with blankets, sleeping mats, cooking supplies and soap. Helaweyn opened to accommodate some 15,000 refugees held at the transit centre, which was designed to hold a crowd a tenth of that size. Aid agencies say malnutrition and mortality rates in the Ethiopian refugee camps remain high, with more that 30 percent of children under five suffering malnutrition and about six deaths per 10,000 people, according to UN estimates. Opportunistic diseases like pneumonia and measles have also erupted among the already weakened population. A prolonged drought in the Horn of Africa region has hit war-wracked Somalia hardest, sending hundreds of thousands of its citizens to neighbouring Kenya and Ethiopia. AFP PHOTO / JENNY VAUGHAN
