Ethiopia's attorney general says two people have been arrested and a third is on the run after the shooting death of a popular singer that set off days of deadly unrest. The singer had been a rallying voice in anti-government protests that led to Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed taking power in 2018. Angry protests followed his death on June 29, and authorities have said at least 239 people were killed. The unrest has posed the most serious challenge yet for the prime minister, himself an Oromo. The internet remains cut off in Ethiopia after the singer's killing, complicating efforts to track the latest unrest.
