The Hill: State Department allowing some employees, family members to leave Ethiopia
The State Department is allowing nonemergency government employees as well as staffers' family members to voluntarily depart Ethiopia because of the "armed conflict, civil unrest, and possible supply shortages," the U.S. Embassy in Addis Ababa announced on Wednesday.
The embassy advised that Americans consider leaving Ethiopia immediately through commercial options and that those who do choose to stay in the nation ensure that they have enough supplies in case they need to shelter in place.
The embassy warned that traveling to Ethiopia is unsafe and that further escalation of the conflict between government forces and rebels is likely, noting that Ethiopia declared a state of emergency Tuesday.

Just a crazy thought. When the Tigrayans dethrone the PM , who should have known better, the Crown Prince could hire them. See who is better. Tigrayans with Saudi gear or Houthi with Irananian gear and tactics. Crazy thought.
If the Tigrayans are not used and abused like some people were at the Frigidus, it would be profitable for all sides.
Maybe the Saudis should use Saudi women. Many women at various times in history have had ferocious reputations.
