Ethiopia to look into the killings at Saudi border

Ethiopia has announced that it will look into the claims that Saudi guards have been using guns and explosives to kill over 650 individuals who are trying to enter the kingdom from Yemen.

It said they would investigate together with the Saudi authorities.

The statement from the foreign ministry asked people not to make guesses and said that Ethiopia and Saudi Arabia have had a good relationship for a long time, even though something tragic happened.

It didn’t show any pity to the supposed victims.

Human Rights Watch (HRW) gathered statements from people who survived. The United Nations has said similar things as HRW before.

A Saudi government official, who did not want to be named, said that the HRW report, which relied on interviews with survivors, is not trustworthy because it is based on information from sources that cannot be relied upon.

The US government is telling Saudi Arabia to investigate the killings very carefully and openly. They have also talked to Saudi Arabia about their worries regarding these accusations.
