Hundreds of Ethiopians evacuated from war-torn Yemen
The International Organisation for Migration (IOM) said in a press statement it had evacuated 485 vulnerable Ethiopians, including 122 women, 261 men, a child and 101 unaccompanied minors from Yemen.
The voluntary repatriations, the statement explained, was supported by the governments of Yemen, Djibouti, Ethiopia and Saudi Arabia.
“This has followed IOM’s earlier repatriation of 4,222 Ethiopians from Yemen in an operation that was suspended in September 2015 due to lack of funding. The same operation provided post-arrival assistance to another 3,319 Ethiopians fleeing Yemen,” it said.
