Magan Noor Abdi, at home at a Kenyan refugee camp, says she has no plans to return to Somalia: ‘Nobody’s there anymore.’
DADAAB REFUGEE COMPLEX, Kenya—Magan Noor Abdi was 17 with three children the first time she fled Somalia. It was 2010, and famine was coming.
The second time was a decade later. Al-Shabaab militants infiltrating her hometown had beaten her husband so badly that he couldn’t support a family that had grown to eight children.
