Israel's influence in the horn of Africa
What's in it for the Horn of Africa region as Israel's president visits Ethiopia? And experts warn that global aid funding cuts could stall the continent’s anti-malaria fight.
The president of Israel Isaac Herzog has just concluded an official state visit in Ethiopia. We look at the historic ties between the two countries, and what the visit means for the horn of Africa region.
Also, a report by the Alliance for Malaria Prevention warns that progress made in containing the disease could be stalling due to global aid funding cuts.
