Move comes after Sudan lodged official complaints against Ethiopia, accusing Addis Ababa of supporting the RSF paramilitary group.
Ethiopia has ordered six Sudanese diplomats to leave the country within 48 hours and closed Sudan’s consulate in the border town of Asosa, according to media reports.
The reports on Tuesday came as tensions between the countries continue to rise, with Sudan accusing Addis Ababa of supporting the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF), which is fighting the Sudanese army, while Ethiopia accuses Khartoum of backing rebels in its northern Tigray region.
