A farm resident cooks a meal in a temporary shelter outsided a tobacco
barn in the Hwedza area 100 Kms east of Harare, in this August 2001
file photo. The workers have been driven out of their houses by
militant supporters of President Robert Mugabe's land seizure program
that has displaced over 70 thousand farmworkers and their families in
the past 18 months. The militants have stepped up a campaign of
violence in the past three weeks forcing farmers and their workers to
flee for their lives. REUTERS/Howard Burditt REUTERS
