The United States has ended temporary legal protections for 5,000 Ethiopian nationals, giving them 60 days to leave or face deportation, despite ongoing violence in the country.

The move comes amidst criticism for racial selectivity in immigration policies, with legal challenges mounting against several TPS terminations.
