ETHIOPIA PM TO ADDRESS PARLIAMENT ON MASS KILLINGS

Ethiopia’s Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed is expected to address the country’s parliament on Thursday as pressure mounts on his government over the killing of hundreds of ethnic minorities in two separate attacks in recent weeks.

The violence last month in farming villages in Oromia region, in the country’s west, claimed more than 300 lives.

Many were killed in yet another attack two weeks later.

This will be Mr Abiy’s second appearance before lawmakers in less than a month.
