Encyclopedia: Ethiopian famine Almost one million people died in the famine in sub-Saharan Africa in 1984 and 1985. BBC news reports brought the famine to public attention, and Live Aid, a fund-raising effort headed by Bob Geldof induced millions of people in the West to donate money and to urge their governments to participate in the relief effort. Ethiopia's agriculture is plagued by periodic drought, soil degradation caused by overgrazing, deforestation, high population density, and poor infrastructure, making it difficult and expensive to get goods to market. www.nationmaster.com /encyclopedia/Ethiopian-famine   (601 words)

Tension also increased in the Southern region: an explosion killed two civilians in front of the Department of Foreign Affairs in Kandahar.
