Ethiopian authorities warned migrant workers kept in deadly camps in Saudi Arabia of “legal repercussions” if they continued to raise awareness of their conditions on social media, a British newspaper has reported. The revelations have prompted international condemnation, while Saudi Arabia has promised to launch an investigation into the allegations. “The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is always collaborative in establishing a safe and dignified repatriation process,” the statement said. Ethiopia said it is working closely with Saudi Arabia after Saudi officials “raised concerns” about the number of migrants crossing its border. In response to Sunday’s report, Saudi Arabia said it is looking into the facilities.
