Ethiopia's army has surrounded the area in neighbouring South Sudan where it believes more than 100 abducted Ethiopian children are being held, local media report. The children were taken in a cross- border raid in the Gambella region last Friday, in which 208 people died. The government has said members of the Murle community were responsible. Flags have been flying at half mast in Ethiopia as the country mourns those who were killed. A government official in Gambella said that the abducted children would soon be rescued, the government- affiliated Fana Broadcasting Corporate reports.
