A multi-million dollar pledge for Ethiopia's humanitarian crisis. Will it be enough?

The United Nations received financial pledges of just over six hundred million dollars to help with Ethiopia's humanitarian crisis. It fell short of the one billion dollars the UN was seeking. Around 15 million people are in need of humanitarian aid in the country. Is the amount pledged enough and how will the funds be distributed?

Also why is gambling on the rise on the continent, attracting young people?

And why is South Africa installing the continent's biggest battery and how will it work?
