Ethiopia is expelling seven senior United Nations officials for allegedly "meddling in the internal affairs of the country," the Ethiopian Ministry of Foreign Affairs said on Thursday.
The group, which includes officials from the UN's Children Fund (UNICEF) and UN Office of Humanitarian Affairs (UNOCHA), have 72 hours to leave the country.
Earlier this month, UNOCHA said there was a "de facto humanitarian aid blockade" into the war-torn Tigray region, where at least 400,000 people are facing famine conditions, according to the agency's latest figures.
