There are reports of clashes between the the ONFL and the regular Ethiopian army Woyanne in Ethiopia’s eastern region of Ogaden.

Local sources said that thirty people, mostly regular soldiers, were killed in the fighting near the towns of Shilabo and Warder, along the border with Somalia. The traffic, on the roads that connect the two countries, was halted in the past few hours on account of the violence.

Fighting between the ONFL and the army has increased since last April, when the ONLF fighters – armed against the central government since the early 1990s -– have attacked some oil wells managed by a Chinese company, leaving 77 dead.

The Ethiopian reaction Woyanne, involving the intervention of ground troops and aerial bombardment and prime minister dictator Meles Zenawi’s decision to prohibit access to humanitarian workers, has made the living conditions of the civilian population even more difficult.

  6. The TPLF rules the house of Ethiopia with fear.That fear is removed from the hearts of the Ogadenis bucuase Meles and his Woyanne army did not hold anyting back.The ONLF took their best shot and are hitting back.The Woyannes are the onces who are on the run in Ogaden today.Hopefully,the rest of the Ethiopians will start speaking to the Woyannes the only language they understand.No more cowardice and no more of turning the other cheeck
