Second filling of Ethiopia’s giant dam nearly complete – state media

Ethiopia has nearly completed the filling of a huge dam on the Blue Nile river for a second year, state media reported on Monday, a move that has already angered Egypt.

The $4 billion hydropower dam on the Blue Nile has stoked concerns over water shortages and water safety in Egypt and Sudan, which also depend on the Nile’s waters.
