Border clashes displace people in Ethiopia and Kenya.

Clashes along the Ethiopia–Kenya border have displaced people on both sides, Saudi Gazette reports. Kenya Governor Mohamud Ali reported that more than 50,000 Ethiopians had crossed into Kenya seeking refuge; separately, approximately 10,000 Kenyan residents had been displaced within the country. The report also says at least eight Somali civilians were killed in an attack in southern Ethiopia. Local authorities blamed an armed Oromo militia, but the circumstances could not be independently verified. The figures describe two distinct movements: Ethiopians crossing into Kenya and Kenyan residents displaced by the violence.
