ADDIS ABABA, Ethiopia (AP) - Thousands of people have been arrested across Ethiopia after violent clashes in which police killed 36 people, a New York-based human rights group reported Wednesday.
The political unrest prompted Britain on Wednesday to suspend a planned $54.1 million increase in aid to Ethiopia, one of the world's poorest countries.
Human Rights Watch said student activists and opposition supporters were rounded up in a crackdown after last week's fighting.
