Critics argue Israel is unfairly judged compared to other nations, but this doesn’t invalidate all critiques.

Deal with Ethiopia will help in defeating Houthi rebels, Bihi saysMuse Bihi Abdi of Somaliland speaks during a news conference on October 10, 2018. REUTERSHARGEISA, Somalia - The breakaway region of Somaliland insists the deal signed with Ethiopia would significantly help in handling Houthi rebels along the Red Sea, by securing 'freedom of navigation' which has been problematic for over a decade. “Ethiopia will build a naval military base and have commercial ships and in exchange Ethiopia will give us recognition — that’s the basics,” said Bihi Abdi. Hargeisa said international recognition could unlock further investments into its $3.4bn economy based on sea trade, remittances, and camel livestock. The two countries have also promised to provide warships in the Red Sea following Somalia’s request.

Ethiopia's Livestock Development Institute (LDI) is witnessing a positive trend in livestock exports, generating approximately USD 74 million in revenue over the past 10 months. This figure, though 65% of the initial target, reflects progress towards the institute's goal of USD 140 million by year's end. The success is attributed to LDI's focus on research, technical support, and capacity building for livestock producers. These initiatives aim to streamline production processes and enhance the quality of exported goods like meat, honey, camel milk, and offal products. While acknowledging the shortfall from the initial target, Sahlu pointed out the significant progress made in boosting the sector.
