Evacuations and displacement are underway in Ethiopia after a series of earthquakes rocked the remote north of the Horn of Africa nation. The earthquakes have damaged houses and threatened to trigger a volcanic eruption of the previously dormant Mount Dofan, near Segento in the northeast Afar region. (Photo by Amanuel Sileshi / AFP)
