Violence has broken out in an eastern city in Ethiopia after federal troops took over key positions including the local parliament.
Soldiers were deployed in Jigjiga, the capital of the Somali region, after an apparent rift between local authorities and the national government.
Protesters set fire to a church and looted shops and targeted non-Somalis.

(Reuters) - Mobs looted shops and burned down properties in Ethiopia's eastern Somali region on Saturday, as unrest gained momentum and spread across the province following deployment of soldiers, witnesses said.
On Friday evening, Ethiopian troops entered the regional capital Jijiga in an apparent attempt by central authorities to arrest regional officials, residents said. On Saturday soldiers traded fire with members of local government security forces.
Violence has since broken out in at least four towns, with mobs attacking civilians and looting property, witnesses said.

Wonder what impressions the world will have of us after reading the beginning of that article?
Call it revenge but taking it out on civilians will have real repercussions for all Somalis.
Do you want to hire or do business with a black South African after hearing about all the shit they do to others?
