1 killed & 154 hurt in blast

-

ONE person has been killed and scores injured, some critically, in an explosion at a pro-pm rally in Ethiopia.

New prime minister Abiy Ahmed described it as an “unsuccessf­ul attempt by forces who don’t want to see the country united”.

He was whisked away after the blast, thought to be from a grenade thrown among thousands of people in Addis Ababa’s Meskel Square.
