Ethiopia Expels Six Sudanese Diplomats

Ethiopia has ordered six Sudanese consular staff based in Assosa to leave the country within 48 hours, Reuters reported citing a high-ranking Ethiopian official. This decision comes amid mutual accusations between Addis Ababa and Khartoum of supporting each other's insurgents. Sudan accuses Ethiopia of supporting the RSF, while Ethiopia accuses Sudan of supporting armed groups in northern Ethiopia. Additionally, Egypt and Sudan recently issued a joint statement condemning Ethiopia's "unilateral actions" regarding the Nile River. The Ethiopian government has consistently rejected these accusations, maintaining that the dam is critical for its economic development and does not harm downstream nations.
