Saudi Arabia’s forces are accused of using indiscriminate force against migrants on their borders, with reports of deaths and injuries and multiple accounts of women being raped.

Ethiopian migrants attempting to cross from neighbouring Yemen between 2019 and 2024 have given accounts to the Guardian of coming under machine gun fire and of seeing bodies rotting in the border area.

That is really a step backwards in comparison to the Christian commandment of mercy and compassion, which explicitely includes foreigners, and not just members of the Abrahamic religions.

But before you complain, I am well aware that Christians are not as good as they should in following this word of God.
