Nearly 5% of the population of Somalia died in the recent hunger crisis according to a report released today.

The Global Humanitarian Assistance (GHA) annual review of humanitarian financing, released by Development Initiatives, revealed that some 257,000 people, 4.6% of the population, died between 2010 and 2012 - and claims lives could have been saved with earlier intervention.
