Women and children living in Somalia's makeshift camps for displaced people face a high risk of rape and other sexual violence.
Amnesty International researchers spoke with dozens of women and girls who felt at risk of sexual violence. Some of them, one as young as 13, had recently been raped. Most victims said they hadn't reported the attacks to the police because they feared being stigmatised and had little confidence in the authorities' ability or will to investigate.
