Ethiopia has worst locust invasion in 25 years
The locust invasion is Ethiopia's worst in 25 years, United Nations food agency FAO says.
It has damaged an estimated 200,000 hectares of land there since January, threatening food supplies - a single square kilometre swarm can eat as much food in a day as 35,000 people - and the livelihoods of millions.
