ENTC press release on the massacre of Muslims in Addis Ababa

Ethiopian National Transitional Council
Press Release

The dictatorship in Ethiopia must be held accountable for its atrocities against Ethiopian Muslims

On Friday, July 13, Meles Zenawi’s dictatorship in Ethiopia launched a bloody crackdown against peaceful Muslim worshippers who gathered at Awolia Mosque in Addis Ababa. The security forces opened fire on the unarmed Muslims causing a large number of casualties.

The Ethiopian National Transitional Council (ENTC) considers Meles regime’s violent action against Ethiopian Muslims as a state sponsored terrorism, and calls on the international community to take urgent action to stop further violence. The Meles regime must also be held accountable for the unnecessary bloodshed that it has caused.

The ENTC calls on the people of Ethiopia to stand united and defend each other. We can stop the Meles regime’s atrocities and injustice only when we unite and fight back.

The ENTC calls on the international media to lift its news blackout on the continued atrocities in Ethiopia in the hands of Meles Zenawi’s brutal dictatorship.

The ENTC calls on international human rights organizations and the United Nations to come to the aid of the Ethiopian Muslim civilians who have been victimized by the Meles regime’s inhuman, irresponsible and excessive use of force.
