Internally displaced Somalians watch as food aid arrives for distribution at an IDP camp in Wajid, about 450 km (279.6 miles) southwest of the capital Mogadishu, December 4, 2005. The U.N's World Food Programme on Sunday delivered its first aid shipment to starving Somalis since pirates prowling its lawless coast forced them to take a dangerous and slow land route. The 14- truck convoy arrived in Wajid, a barren and scrubby town in south-central Somalia, after a 13-day trip from the Kenyan port of Mombasa, a route the aid trucks have not taken in four years because of the cost and difficulty.

A convoy of food aid arrives in Wajid town, 450 km (280 miles) southwest of the capital Mogadishu, December 4, 2005. The U.N's World Food Programme on Sunday delivered its first aid shipment to starving Somalis since pirates prowling its lawless coast forced them to take a dangerous and slow land route.

WFP operations in Somalia were sabotaged this year by the hijacking of two ships carrying food, which forced the U.N. food agency to opt for an equally treacherous and longer route over land.
