Sudanese refugees in Ethiopia face violence and humanitarian crisis
The latest incident involved a group of Sudanese refugees being kidnapped from an ambulance on its way to Gondar Hospital in the Amhara region for treatment. As of April 22, the UNHCR estimates that over 52,758 Sudanese refugees have crossed into Ethiopia, fleeing the war between the Sudanese army and the RSF. Approximately 6,000 Sudanese refugees, who fled the conflict between the Sudanese army and the Rapid Support Forces since mid-April 2023, are currently in a forest with no basic necessities for survival. He highlighted practices against Sudanese refugees, such as denying or selling water at high prices, which leads them to drink contaminated water. He accused unspecified entities of exploiting the attacks on Sudanese refugees by “Ethiopian criminal groups” to suggest that Ethiopian authorities were attacking the Sudanese refugees.

However, as a part Indonesian, Yemeni, Pakistani and Kenyan boy raised in London, Nahdi approaches the complex layers of the backstories of countries through their food, and his recipe videos are served alongside montages of historical footage. Photo: Nadir NahdiHe wishes to someday bequeath to his children his family’s culture through food.

The Hidden World of Chinese Manufacturing in Ethiopia
We have seen documentaries, we have seen in-depth coverage of Ethiopia in terms of the Chinese manufacturing presence there. And we’ll start with one of the main people you focused on, her name is Moto, I think that’s how you pronounce it. I mean this eastern industry zone has been treated as a poster child for sort of Chinese investment in Ethiopia. I think work culture is always a very difficult thing to talk about without making huge generalizations. Because it really kind of like shows you that no one makes it through unscathed through that process.

Athletics-Gebrhiwet just misses world record, Ingebrigtsen dives to win 1,500
"The time I achieved is very nice," said Gebrhiwet, who narrowly missed beating Ugandan Joshua Cheptegei's world record of 12:35.36. Ingebrigtsen, who had been beaten by British arch-rival Josh Kerr in the mile five days earlier in Eugene, lunged at the finish line to hold off hard-charging Kenyan Timothy Cheruiyot. "I really do not think that it was the decision I made to dive into the finish line, because everything just happened so fast," said Ingebrigtsen, who flashed a No. Jamaica's Jackson, the second fastest woman ever over the distance, finished fifth in 22.97, well off the 21.41 she clocked last season and slightly slower than her season-opener two weeks ago. Britain's Matthew Hudson-Smith won the men's 400m in 44.07 -- second fastest in the world this season -- to break his own European record.

U.S. designates Ugandan officials for significant corruption – New Business
The Department of State is publicly designating five current and former Ugandan officials for their involvement in significant corruption or gross violations of human rights. Speaker of Parliament Anita Among is designated due to involvement in significant corruption tied to her leadership of Uganda’s Parliament. Additionally, Peter Elwelu, former Deputy Chief of the Ugandan Peoples’ Defence Forces (UPDF), is designated due to his involvement in gross violations of human rights. As a result of these actions, the designated Ugandan officials are generally ineligible for entry into the United States.

Post uses photo from Ethiopia’s Tigray war to claim rebels recently surrendered in Amhara
Post uses photo from Ethiopia’s Tigray war to claim rebels recently surrendered in AmharaMisinformation surrounding the ongoing armed conflict in Ethiopia's troubled Amhara region is rife, with supporters of both the government and rebels claiming victories over one another. A photo shared on Facebook allegedly shows Amhara rebels who surrendered to the Ethiopian army. However, this is misleading: the photo shows rebels surrendering, but in the Tigray region during the regional war that ended in 2022. Shewa is a zone in the Amhara region, while Asegid and Meketaw are Fano leaders from the area. However, the photo does not show rebels in the Amhara region who have surrendered to the army.
