Ethiopia’s twice-delayed national and regional elections will now take place on June 21, but security and logistics problems will delay voting in some areas, organizers announced on Thursday.

Overall, 36.24 million Ethiopians have registered to vote in the elections. Ethiopia’s population is around 109 million, but exact figures, including the number of eligible voters are hard to come by as the last national census was conducted in 2007.

Colombia will no longer co-host the 2021 Copa America after a series of protests in the country. The tournament was set to be held between Colombia and Argentina for the first time in its 105-year history. There have been widespread protests against the government in Colombia, with demonstrators disrupting some Copa Libertadores matches.

The final of the 10-team tournament, which runs from 13 June-10 July, was due to be held in Barranquilla.
