Yemeni refugees build a new life in Ethiopia : Some Yemenis fleeing the war are starting new lives in Ethiopia.
Officially, 1,500 Yemenis have moved there but the number could be as high as 4,000.
Al Jazeera’s Mohammed Adow met some of them in the capital, Addis Ababa.

We welcome refugees in Ethiopia even though we are poor Country….but why are we watching Saudi Arabia and UAE bombing this Country…with the help of western world.
يامرحبا أهلال يمن إنسان كويسن طيبين غني موش بمال غني بالأحلاق طيبين يرحمو ناس أحوم الله يحفظكوم صغروم وكبيركوم
Thank you Ethiopia, treat them with your well known hospitality they are our brothers.
The BRIDGE 54 dead sure bro been to adhramaut,Sana,Adan and all of them I met never had a bad experience with any!
okay my brother we love you Yemenis
Geez Tube they are not your brothers . Muhammad’s slave who sung call to prayer was Ethiopian. The surah calls black people raisins and slaves
ShutterFire Studios Bilal Habeshi loved Rasulullah (SalAllahu Ta’ala alayhi wa Salam) a lot. He (SAWS) bought him free. And he never called black raisins. Those are fabricated lies of David Woods. He twists the truth and turns it into lies
@daniel childofgod
Don’t worry I swear justice will be served to these people one day May Ethiopia have the right wing to shield them cause meanwhile we have leftists in our government bringing to many foreigners that will ruin our land visiting traveling no problem but not to own houses and marry and take over
Ethiopia for Ethiopians ONLY!!
Saudi Arabia took zero refugees. What a backwarded country
Horumarka Dalka No, they took many. Go look it up.
they are the one they cause this problem
God bless Ethiopia
Send them to Europe.
That is what I said. Why are they in a poor country like Ethiopia. They should be sent to rich countries. The a Ethiopian gov is stupid, they accepted 200k Sudanese and now Yemenis. They would sell our ancestors land if they could.
Et Immortalem what is your fuckig problem they have history with Ethiopian in the past thousand of years so they don’t wanted to immigrate to Europe those people have money as much as I know they livening in Ethiopia by their own money
A Google User Ethiopian are more than Europe my brother 😊
Ethiopia is good country
Its a beautiful to give a place of comfort to another human being. We in uganda we have always accepted those in need. Africans we cannot always be the ones receiving. Thank you Ethiopians.
But Yemen kill Ethiopia people
Changes that u make like 1400 years ago, before islam
Very true
Eddie Glas no steel now he was killing so many ppl
Darkness cannot drive out darkness, only light can do That,Hate cannot drive out hate,Only love can do that /MLK/. just be positive Brother
Aren’t this the same people who through Ethiopians from 10+ story buildings not long ago?
yemeni ethiopian
Rayan Ali ,hey Rayan Ali nice to see you
I’m Indonesian… may I know why did Saudi Arabia attack Yemenis despite the fact that both are the Muslim-majority nation?
Rizky F. Stupid politics
Go ask them yourself
eXTreMeTHiopiaN
Was it an answer?
It’s 2018. Religion doesn’t matter every country is looking for the best for them. Saudi Arabia is bombing Yemen and trying to ally with Israel. No religion, just politics.
but they treat ethiopians in yemen and saudi arabia like slaves.
Unidentified Yemenis have never had any ‘Somali slaves’, that whole statement is pure fiction because Somalis have never been enslaved in their history ( they actually had some though) In Arab countries, this is only happening to Ethios.
Yemenis is mixed blood arab +afro mixed dns proves
So what habesha is programmed to worship and be friendly to every race that is not darkskinned
that’s so true
Also in Ethiopia
The horn of Africa has always been a place where arabs find refuge without any hustle, from the time of the Prophet to today they always come and live with dignity unlike the people form the horn of Africa who when they go to the arabic countries face hostility and enslavement.
@Wake Dreams
“You mean horners”
Funny can’t you see what’s happening in Nigeria they go to Libya and get sold and the Arabs even cross the border get in to the villages brutally murder the men’s rape the women’s and the kids are enslved and are taken into Libya to be sold and other African countries so *No* not only horners do your research
Yemeins still enslave Africans (Somalis/Ethiopians). kick them out
Yemenis AREN’T AArabs they’re mixed (Indians & Africans).
Unidentified
Nobody enslaved Somalis or conquered us throughout history we’ve just been colonised by Europe so stop the lies
Unidentified Yemenis enslave Ethiopians not Somalis. Even though they are genetically similar to Ethiopians they tend to have a preference towards Somali people because they’re Muslim
Road Runna007 That’s not true at all. In fact Ethiopian/ Eritrean Aksumite empire conquered Yemen and himyarite kingdom. Yemenis never ruled over anyone
It is a noble thing for Ethiopian to host the Yemenis, treat them with respect and give them sanctuary while they are in-need, but to call them brother is a mistake, they see Ethiopians nothing more that ABD (SLAVE). and they are one of the countries where slavery of black people still exist.
dhdowlad All Yemenis have African blood. However, the African slave trade to Arabia ended 1400 years ago, it no longer exists, Islam does not accept slavery
yet Libyans and Mauritania, both Arab Muslim countries, still use slaves TODAY
Eddie Glas first of all I didn’t talk about Islam, I talked about Arabs and Yemenis are Arabs, I know we always jump into Islam when we are criticised.
Do you know any Verse of the Quran or Hadith that prohibits enslaving human being?…
@Edd Glassus arab slavery never ended it will only end if the nations they enslave put an end to it africans hate eachother but treat their worst enemies who are not blacks like royalty
you welcome for now when your country peace you need to go back most arbe and Yemen are not good. you treat us bad don’t like black. Ethiopia bless country
God bless Ethiopia
Ethiopia is a good country with good heart since the prophet time
We love you too
Ethiopians are welcoming people always proud of them.
GOD BLESS ETHIOPIA!
About time your Muslim brothers take your own people in,. And now give them welfare and housing.
They kill our people in Yemen…!!
Ironic how Africans are treated in Asia aka Arab countries but as soon as their countries go to war they’re running to African continent instead of other Arab countries.
Georgy Plocko What kind of advantages? The welfare? Come on, just to read your comment makes me laugh.
@Tsegaab Daniel shut up you coward
Yes in deed bustards shouldn’t inter ethiopia sad Ethiopian refuge been burns a life evils god is great everyone will run to ethiopia wait and see
Am aEthiopian oromo they are welcomes our brothers in sisters Yemeni I swear to Allah yamani are very kind people just like Sudanese Alhamdulillah am proud to be Muslim wlhi no one can hurts them we are ready to help them insha Allah
I’m trying to picture how this will work .
Fi Yah It worked 1400 years ago, it will work even now. Then they are very close culturally
Eddie Glas then its a good thing
I’m so happy Ethiopia has decided to let them in. I appreciate it so much. Makes me so happy.
Ethiopians have been welcoming refugees for centuries specially from the Arabian peninsula. The Ethiopians are very nice people
Ethiopian and yemeni people they have many things in common than most people things
I’m happy that Ethiopia 🇪🇹 support others shame on all GCC countries 👎
Yemeni people use to – and they’re still- call black people ” khadem” which means in Arabic “servent” which means “slave” in Yemeni -Arabic dialect. So if you go to Yemen and a fight broke out between you and a Yemeni guy he would call you with this word automatically. And by the way I want to Surprise everyone who would think that Yemeni people are awesome & friendly with black people, could you imagine that there’s a group of black people in Yemen called “Akhdam”” the same term I mentioned above but in his plural form. Those people are being treated like animals and being enslaved till now in some parts of Yemen like a province called Hajjah. They don’t have the right to education and several basic human rights. Akhdam people work in transferring garbage that’s the only job they can do in Yemen. Next time don’t be fooled by those racist Arabs.
3beed is a very common term. They use it all the time.
@Suldaan Daroodand the daarood say they are yemeni ala maxaa dhiigu i karaa markaan kuwo aan qaraabo nahay kuwaa sheegtaan
I see alot of love here….but with every kind comment there are those full of hate and division
most of the people has hate coment they are not ethiopian
My parents lived in Yemen for several years and were welcomed by the people there..
My neighbors in the capital of Yemen was Ethiopian who got the citizenship of Yemen , we studied in the same school prayed in the same mosque went to to the same football team. after graduation from high school i left abroad for study , i came back 10 years later my friend and his quiet family has moved to another house which i do not know i was shocked. Yemen has more than 2 million people from Somali and Ethiopia and Djoubti. I never understood the difference between these nationalities as a kid , though we are just humans and food and land is for all , i faced difficulites being from Yemen and I needed a lot of papers to go to some asian countries that nobody would think will require documents and I think middle east and africa are the having better future in the next 30 to 50 years from now if we have tolderance and understanding for ourselves. n
there is a clear difference between ethiopians and arabs even though some horners are arab wannabees.
jesus is jerry allah is tom first fix ur profile picture and u can talk about Ethiopia 🇪🇹🥰
who said we were alike? no ethiopian want to be arab, ethiopia is 60% christian
@naruto rules i thought habesha were proud african people but i have seen many arab wannabes who claim habesha have arab yemeni origin like two somali tribes who claim arab origin they are suffering in arab countries they are not considered arab by the arabs there are many horn africans who are suffering from selfhatred and inferiority complex and identity crisis very sad
@Malab Raage
you have no idea about history so be quite. first off never use ethiopia it is comprised of many other tribes than just habesha. . secondly it is a fact most, not only habeshans every one in africa has to some extent an amount of euroasian blood. it just depends how much.
for ignorant people yemenis have been migrating to ethiopia for the past 3,000 years same with ehtiopians who migrted to yemen for 3000 years; so these migrations are nothing NEW; its as old as it gets; theres historical ties that an outsider will never get unless your from yemen or the horn of africa peace
europe complains
Am ethiopian my ancestors came from lucy in ethipopia.
And then after awhile they will claim some lands Africans will never learn
This is Abdul Hamid Shard Abu al-Qabah Ibn Khali fled on a family from al-Bayda a year ago and Ali fled from Aden four months agoهذا عبدالحميد شارد ابو القبعة ابن خالي هرب على اهلة من البيضاء قبل سنة ثم هرب علي من عدن قبل اربعة اشهر
Surprise they didn’t go to Turkey or Israel or UAE or Qatar. Remember Ethopia isn’t their country they are refugees!
Why?!
All Arabs aren’t they same
The black power movement has begun!
I can’t say I am happy with this. South Sudan first, now Yemen? Ethiopia is poor, we can’t handle this influx of refugees from Middle East and South Sudan. Eritreans are our brothers from same mother but others need to go to Europe or other Middle East nations.
agreed. It seems like they trying to outbreed us.
i don’t mind south sudanese refuges, what have they done to you? nothing but the yemens have burnt, killed and toyed with many innocent ethiopians! even muslim ethiopians who thought they would be treated better were treated in kind
WOW first black African country to take Arab refugees and I think refugees at all ETHIOPIA NEVER STOP TO SURPRISE 😍🇪🇹❤️️
مرحب بكم في بلدكم الثاني. انشاءالله السلام يعود الي بلادكم وترجعون سالمين امنين يارب. مافي شعب يحس بتشردكم من الحرب زينا الاحباش لاننا مرينا بنفس الشي. الله يقدم الفيهو الخير لكل الشعوب الطيبة.
Okay
Jesus says forgive
The people of the Queen of Sheba (ETHIOPIA/YEMEN)❤🇾🇪
When we go there they kill and enslaved us etc
When they come over here they get treated respected
But if it wouldn’t be like that the other way round
Yea yemans are back ! Your welcome like 1000yrs ago
Yemenis in Ethiopian culture seen as one of us never consider them as outsiders
I saw Yemeni refugees in May 2018. At the UNHCR refugee registration building, in Addis Ababa. I also saw South Sudanis,but most that I saw were Eritreans. Thank God Ethiopia for helping refugees.
اليمن تربطاها صداقه واخوه مع الحبشه وصومال وارتيليا هم جيران لنا ونحنا وهم اخوه
Selam,
Yemeni guests in Ethiopia should have no fear, even tho some say many things. Don’t worry, they have no say. Only God owns the whole Universe. No man. The One, Our Creator has made Ethiopia, and East Africa, a place of peace for the Middle East, since long ago. Welcome and tell others to come. You bring more blessings to Ethiopia. Things are not going to get better soon, anyway. We all should be afraid of what’s to come in the Middle East. May God forgive us all! Amen!
Yemens only now respect Ethiopians a little because we aren’t as harsh to them as they are to us.
I’m so glad with my beloved country, Ethiopia, for treating the Yemenis with respect and dignity. Let them always feel at home.
do africans feel at home in yemen no they are abused and humiliated by many of arab yemenis
Allah protect u my beautiful people and country Ethiopian🙏💚💛❤
Shouldn’t Yemeni be in ethiopia what they did to Ethiopians god knows f them
From ethopia
Ilove my contrary 😍
I love my lovely country Ethiopia
We are all one people. Let love rule your heart and it will rule the world.
We are not aminal like Arabs, Yamanis were not kind to our people, but we believe in God regardless of our religions difference.
Ethiopians are known for their kindness and beautiful people, let us not go down to their level.
Why not Somalia?
9 Because Somalis and Yemenis having nothing to do with eachother. Somalis are Cushitic Africans and Ethiopians are Semitic Arabs originally from Yemen. You see the connection right?
They are many refugees in both north berbera and bosaso and some here in Mogadishu …
مشاء الله قبل 15 كان يوجد كثير جاليه اثيوبيه في اليمن ولاان الحرب الأهليه في اليمن جعلت بعض اليمنيين يهاجرون لاثيوبيا ألف تحيه من اليمن لاخونا الاثيوبيين وخاص عرب اثيوبيا المهريين
اهلا بكم ولله نحنا نحبكم🇪🇹💞🇾🇪
you only just gotta ask and mama Ethiopia welcomes all.
Send back these arabs
yemen people killed a lot ethiopian migrant
Good Thank you ethiopia!
Y do black people help others but we ask for help nope
But the Arab people have treated the Ethiopian workers as animals, burning them and killing them. It is a matter of humanity and honer to treat humans as so. I would rather die as a dog then go to any Arab country for they lack all moral compass.
that is what i am sayin, y r they being treated better than other refuges? y r they even allowed when they bulliy etiopians in their land
you guys are welcome here,we support you,we are with you guys and we would love to have you here from your Ethiopian sister
i wish africans in yemen were loved like that they are not sad horn africans worship arabs but most arabs do not like you
Yemen Ethiopia Somalia Djibouti Eritrea Used to be one country it was part of the same kingdom the kingdom of Saba and himyar
No it wasn’t!
❤❤❤❤❤ إتيبيا ماما 🌹🌹
الحمد لله على نعمة الإسلام يا اخواني واخواتي في اليمن أهلا بك ولله إني أحبك في الله تحياتي لكم من مدينة اوروميا
In North Africa and Middle East they call us illegal migrants and trouble doing people but when they run to us we must welcome them and do nothing
They only north African nation or nation in the whole Arab world who will accept other human beings is Algeria, Qatar and Saudi Arabia
@Soviet Boi african people are killed in algeria saudi there is no arab country where black people live with peace and dignity
Ethiopia is the best place to live for forigeners than for its own citizens
The Bible says not respond, violent through a violent let God decide the revenge. although it is very hard rules to follow as we are just a flash & human but we should try at least to follow the legislation of our God Almighty in Jesus name help us God to do so. God bless Africa I must say proud of you all Ethiopians for treating those individual with kindness, warm heart. Heaven father god seeing Ethiopia keep doing good things
Take these Yemenis out they lazy and eat qat all day… they have no skills
I think most Yemenis mixed with Ethiopians the look like us some of em looks exactly like Ethiopian
So is it true Habeshas and yemeni are related?
no they are not hebasha are suffering in arab countries
As a Yemeni, much love to the Ethiopian people. The Gulf countries do not follow ths spirit of Islam and help theif fellow man. Instead they use the poor. But Allah is watching and everyone will be questioned on what they use to do.
what about the yemenis how they treat blacks in their country african refugees muwaladeen people and the people they have named akhdam who are suffering more than 1000 years god is watching everyone yemeni racist too do not forget that
We thank the ethiopian people for their assistance
Long Live my beautiful country Ethiopia…. I love you too much…. I am lucky I am Ethiopian.. Emuaaa
I just hope some of them didn’t come with an evil agenda.
I just love how Yemeni people in America are very successful and hard working. They come from poverty in their lands and turn it all around here. A wonderful example for all
Thank you Ethopia
From somalia .🇸🇴 i love my brothers yemen .😍 allaah help them
okay the irony, i just finished watching a documentary about Ethiopians crossing the border to go to Saudi Arabia and end up getting stranded in Yemen
Yeman was part of Ethiopia…. we have so much common history…well come to my country!
Proud to be Ethiopia 🇪🇹!!we are one ☝️ people Love and Respect
i didn’t know yemenis chew khat too i thought it was a somali thing 🤣
until they start segregating or bombing in the name of Allah. poor Ethiopians
Some of them look like Ethiopians lol
I Think this happened many many years ago where yemen/arab came and mixed with black African , and now is habesha etc
ياخي إفريقيا لازم يكون عندك فلوس إقتصاد مافي كل شيء مدمر
Keek them out and rep thier girls Sam thing what was doing to you in yaman. they are not welcomed in Ethiopia
