Ethiopian dam on Nile worries neighbours

(May 28, 2013,(AlJazeeraEnglish))--Ethiopia says it has started diverting the course of the Blue Nile river by constructing its Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam. It has plans to use the water for hydropower electricity.

But there is some concern the dam construction could restrict the water supply upstream in Egypt and Sudan. Al Jazeera's Nicole Johnston reports from Cairo.
