Warzone / Movie:  Battle of Mogadishu (1993), as seen in Black Hawk Down (2001)

Level Of Heat:  Like a furnace.  The best policy for Delta Force soldiers on an extraction mission: get in fast, and get the hell out even faster.

Trouble is, when Somali militiamen have shot down the getaway vehicle, it's hard to avoid getting burnt.

Has It Cooled Down Since? "The safest way through Mogadishu is escorted by Ethiopian and official Somalian troops," reports Wikitravel.  "However, they themselves are a target for the militias and may come under attack." 

That'd be a categoric no, then...but if you need further proof...

"Independent travel is suicidal. When being escorted, it is best to be in an armored car. Infantry are highly likely to get engaged in street battles, and an armored vehicle can provide far better protection against most threats. A bullet proof vest is a must-have in Mogadishu."
