Prisoners on Hunger strike in Ethiopi

Intro 

A court in Ethiopia has allowed prisoners who were on hunger strike to be taken to a private hospital after medical personnel said their situation was deteriorating.

 

The prisoners are from the Oromo Federalist Congress,  an opposition party from the Prime Minister's ethnic group that has openly challenged his rule.

 

Over 20 leaders were arrested last year after being accused of inciting violence among other charges.
