Military Communique’ - Forty three TPLF Regime troops have been killed with dozens more wounded in fighting between Ogaden National Liberation Front (ONLF) soldiers and regime forces over the last two weeks. The bulk of the fighting has taken place in northern Ogaden in and around the Nogob province.
Significant amounts of ammunition and over two dozen rifles as well as communications equipment were captured during the engagements. One armored vehicle belonging to the regime was destroyed near Shilaabo town in western Ogaden during this period. The TPLF regime continues to retaliate by targeting ethnic Somali civilians in Ogaden where arbitrary arrests and extrajudicial killings continue. The regime has also re-instituted the practice of holding open air military courts in remote villages which often sentence local villagers to death by hanging without due process.
