Thousands of terrified civilians have poured out of the Somali capital on Saturday after heavy fighting between Ethiopian troops and gunmen overnight left at least 10 people dead. Some residents scrambled into passenger vans while most just grabbed household items and left on foot for the relative calm of the surrounding countryside where food is scarce.A mother of five, Sahro Ali Mohamed, said houses in her Mogadishu neighbourhood were deserted. "People cannot endure the heavy artillery and mortar exchange that kills people every time," she said as she left with her family in tow.
