Acid attack survivor: 'There are more good people than bad'

An Ethiopian woman disfigured after her estranged husband attacked her with acid in 2017, says that despite her suffering she has reasons to be thankful.

"There are more good people in the world than there are bad people," Atsede Nguse told the BBC on the phone from her new home in the US.

"I have been touched by the kindness and love people showed me after the incident," the 29-year-old mother of one said.

The acid poured over her destroyed her face and burned through her body.

She could not get treatment in an Ethiopian hospital and did not have money to go elsewhere.

When they learned what had happened, friends and well-wishers raised money to pay for treatment in Thailand.

But that money ran out before Ms Atsede was properly healed and she had to return home.

Then, for a second time, someone came to her assistance.
