Nairobi, Kenya, 22.10.2010. Men at work in a distribution center for Khat. They are preparing the leaves for international distribution. Khat is known as a vital source of income for the islamist militia Al-Shabab, based in Somalia. The kenyan capital of Nairobi has long been a destination for somali refugees fleeing the fighting betwen African Union troops (AU) and Al-Shabab fighters. Most of the refugees end up living in a suburb of Nairobi by the name of Eastleigh. Photo: Christopher Olssøn.
