President Isaias Afwerki Receives Award from Rashaida Elders
Updated: 1:16 PM EST - fixed video issues
President Isaias Afwerki received an award from Rasiahda elders in Sahel during 30th anniversary celebrations of the demise of Wukaw Iz.
Towards the end of the short clip, it appears a camel was slaughtered in President Isaias' honor, which in Bedouin traditions, is sign of great respect.
The Rashaida are one of two Arab groups who migrated to Eritrea in the 19th century after clan warfare erupted in the Arabian Peninsula. The second Arab group in the country are the Adeni Arabs.
