Deadline for Closure of Ethiopian Consulates in Garowe and Hargeisa Expires Today

The deadline for the closure of Ethiopian consulates in Garowe and Hargeisa expires today.

Recently, Somalia ordered Ethiopia to close the two consulates.

On April 4, the Somali government issued the notice after also ordering the Ethiopian Ambassador to leave the country in 72 hours.

Diplomats and personnel working at the consulates were given one week to leave Somalia too.

The notice to close the consulates and leave the country expires on Thursday, April 11.
