Turkey s state-run aid agency on Thursday distributed food items among 550 displaced families on the outskirts of Ethiopia s capital Addis Ababa,
Anadolu Agency reports.
The Turkish Cooperation and Coordination Agency (TIKA) distributed food packages containing rice, cooking oil, flour, and dates at a makeshift camp in the town of Legetafo, which in recent years has taken in people displaced by ethnic conflicts in the town of Jijiga, located in Ethiopia s Somali regional state.
