At least 14 people, including children, were killed in several drone strikes on a camp for displaced people in Ethiopia's Amhara region on Thursday, about 250 miles northeast of the capital, Addis Ababa, three witnesses told AFP on Friday.

"Four drone strikes were carried out one after another. We have buried 14 people at the IDP centre. Two more died while receiving medical treatment," said Yasin, who requested anonymity, adding that pregnant women and children were among the victims.
