Brussels, Nov 23 (UNI) Somalia is one of the most dangerous countries for journalists in Africa and presents a real risk of death for journalists, International Federation of Journalists (IFJ) has said in a statement after a report stated that at least 57 journalists have been killed since 2010 and only four perpetrators have been punished so far by the law in the country.
Corruption and insecurity are a serious obstacle to press freedom, while journalists were killed in crossfire, bombings, terrorist attacks or in targeted attacks, IFJ said, adding, since 2010, 57 journalists have been killed, with the deadliest year being 2012 with 18 killings.
The level of impunity remains at its highest as, until the date, only four killers have been punished, the statement further said.
