More on Diversion of US Food Aid in Ethiopia

 The New York Times published on 8 June 2023 an article titled "U.S. Suspends Food Aid for Ethiopia, Citing Widespread Theft" by Declan Walsh and Abdi Latif Dahir.

The Ethiopian government has agreed to investigate charges that a "coordinated and criminal scheme" is diverting US food aid from needy Ethiopians to commercial markets and unintended recipients.
