ኢትዮጵያ በአዲስ ግጭት አፋፍ ላይ ስትሆን፣ ፋኖ የተባለው የሀገር ውስጥ ብሄራዊ ሚሊሻ በፌዴራል ሃይሎች ከውጪው አለም ተቆርጦ በሩቅ ደጋማ አካባቢዎች ከመንግስት ጋር እየተዋጋ ነው። ይህ የፎቶግራፍ ዘገባ አገሪቱን እየገነጣጠለ ስላለው ውጥረት ብርቅዬ ፍንጭ ይሰጣል
Three years after the end of the Tigray war, Ethiopia is grappling with a violent armed insurgency devastating the north-west of the country. The Fano, an ethno-nationalist militia composed mainly of former soldiers from the Ethiopian regional special forces, now control large areas of the Amhara region.
Abuses committed by federal forces in an attempt to quell the insurgency are widespread: kidnappings, massacres, sexual violence, and attacks on humanitarian personnel. The situation is out of control, and more than 2 million people are in urgent need of humanitarian assistance in a region that is also hosting refugees from the war in Sudan.
