BBC Somali Service has apologized to its audience, acknowledging that its earlier news report claiming Eritrea expressed concern about the Ankara agreement between Somalia and Ethiopia was inaccurate.
The outlet admitted the story did not meet BBC’s editorial guidelines and retracted it.
This demonstrates the organization’s commitment to accountability and maintaining journalistic standards.
The Ankara Agreement refers to a deal between Ethiopia and Somalia that was brokered by Turkey a few weeks ago ending year-long differences between the two neighboring nations in East Africa.
