sudan_border.jpgEMF (12 July 2008) People in Ethio-Sudan border area are selling their livestocks and properties to buy riffles as the situation remain tense at Ethio-Sudan border, EMF sources said. “It is a fight for survival!” says the reporter. “Sudan is harassing Ethiopian living in the territory given by Meles zenawi’s secret deal.”  The Sudanese army deployed across the border is also threatening our people to leave the area. According to the sources, the prise of Russian made A.K.M has reached at 14,000 ET. Birr in the region.

The border fighting has erupted on Wednesday, 9 July 2008 around 10AM. An unidentified armed men from the local area engaged Meles Zenawi’s army that was stationed at Kokit, 12 KM from the town of Metema. The forces have totally destroyed the woyane’s army on the main highway to Gondar. Eye witnesses who fled from Kokit said the situation is very tense. Some causality has also been reported from the side of civilian.

The Sudanese regime accused woyane for the incident last week in north of Nebs Gebeya. But there is no evidence of Zenawi’s army involved in the fight despite some rumours that a group of defected army officers have been assisting the Ethiopian fighters.

Update:

Meanwhile Sudanese regime has temporarily agreed with Zenawi to re-open Metema and Abderafi. Metama was cut off from Ethiopia on Wednesday as the Sudanese army has blocked roads and closed all communication channels. The Sudanese army agreed to reopen the road after woyane argued that the problem is caused by the chauvinists AMHARAS, and his government has not involved in the fight. Report also disclosed that several militias and civilians, wounded by the fighting, are getting treatments in Chechela hospital in Gonder.

      it is perfectly desien by TPLF to cause this conflict. Any person with functioning brain will not miss the anger it causes to Ethiopians when their land is given away but they want it to happen. Ginbot 7 and OLF, ONLF and all need to step up to this issue.

    8. Wakjerra Says:

      OLF was created as a form of protest aginst Amara domination, after amara elites blackmailed and assassinated Oromos first president (Teferi Banti) in 1975.

      The dictator Meles Zenawi needs to be brought to justice and all the atrocities and treacherous activities against Ethiopia and its people need to come out.

      Woyane maggots are out of time and out of frifari. If yoe stay stuck with woyane you will be face justice before you know it. Its time to fly to where you hide blood money. This is the last call ….

    12. Hagere Ethiopia Says:

      dear Ethiopian,
      Woyane try to change our attention by putting TEDDY AFRO or the derg prisoner.this tactic is clear.we ethiopian focused now to protect our countary and over threw woyane .the tactic doesnt work.read what tegabu wrote above and Wakjerra they are woyane .
      Wakjerra used the name oromo and tegabu wrote another topic.” People are selling livestock to buy arms” he ignore the topic and discuss another topic to misslead the other .woyane has to know we are very storng and never to stop our struggle for our sovernigity.we will win soon.TEDDY AFRO is our brother but our focus is to get radical change and to over threw woyane. which is invitible.

    13. Hagere Ethiopia Says:

      One of the woyan is our unity make him angry and will never visit .like Bete.that is good we dont need woyane.we will win soon.!!!!

      i never expect gimbot7 would be strong enough to push weyanes out. Alliance with ONLF and OLF is a complete disaster as these are fighting for liberation of their territories instead of ethiopian unity. To the best of my information, only EPPF is fighting for ethiopian unity. you can see news on www.eppf-fiurst.org

      why didnt ginbot7 cooperate with eppf??? Berhanu nega wake up!

      Wakjerra,

      Mengistus regime was not dominated by amharas. dont forget mengistu is konso, and edom is from eritrea. he got killed just like teferi banti. i get angry as if oromos are the only one that are strugling. i want to go visit Gojam, Gonder, and Wolo and tell me if the people in therer are living better than wolega.the bottom line is OLF if fake they are fabricating stories to be recognized. there is a video that I saw a week ago that exposes the lie of OLF. they are just a puppet of Issayas. when i find the video i will give you the link. ethiopias from all the regions have suffered. i know a lot of amharas that were killed during mengisu time. oromos are educated as well as any other race. the notion that they are suffering is bull shit so get your ugly ass out of here, for you to write this comment forgetting the topic shows how ignorant you are.
