UNICEF have voiced their concern at the increasing number of rape cases in the country's war-torn capital Mogadishu. The representative for Somalia, Christian Balslev-Olesen has said that, "Sexual violence and rape are part of the game now".

Ethiopian troops have been accused of numerous rapes of civilians in Somalia, which is a violation of human rights.
