CLEAN : Suppression in Ethiopia dubbed human rights crisis by Amnesty

The video discusses the ongoing protests in Ethiopia, particularly in Oromia, against the government's excessive use of force. The protests, which began peacefully in November, escalated in December with the government using force, resulting in deaths, including at Haramaya University. Protesters demand the cancellation of a master plan, regional autonomy, human rights, and the release of political leaders.
