Sudan: Repatriation from Ethiopia resumes

The UN refugee agency has resumed the repatriation of Sudanese refugees from western Ethiopia after a six-month hiatus due to the rainy season and poor road conditions. A convoy of buses and trucks carrying 610 Sudanese refugees – more than half of them born in Ethiopia – left Bonga Camp on Saturday on a 820-kilometre-long journey to Sudan's Blue Nile state via the border crossing of Kurmuk.
