Saudi Arabia grants amnesty to almost 2,000 detained Ethiopians

In a significant humanitarian gesture, Saudi Arabia has granted amnesty to nearly 2,000 detained Ethiopians, including those facing death sentences. This move follows extensive reporting by Middle East Eye, which highlighted the plight of Ethiopians in Saudi prisons. The amnesty is a relief for families like Gebremeskel Haile's, whose two children were on death row. This decision underscores the importance of international media in bringing attention to human rights issues, potentially influencing policy changes and offering hope to those affected.
