 Today's Highlighted Video Story: Ethiopia is one of the most ethnically-diverese nations in Africa. It also has the second largest population of the continent. But it has struggled with rising ethnic-based violence and tension in recent years. Hundreds of civilians were targeted by armed men in the Gimbi district of Ethiopia’s Oromia region, in an attack that began last Saturday. Witnesses said most of the victims belonged to the Amhara ethnic group.
