Blood and lies Who is killing Orthodox Christians in Ethiopia? After the escalation in the north of the country, the massacre reached the center. In the area of ​​the city of Asla, south of Addis Ababa, the attackers attacked several Orthodox churches, killing 60 believers who were held by the militants. Responsibility for the attack has not been clearly determined. Apparently, Oromo Liberation Army rebels from the Coalition for Survival are behind the attack: fighters from this group have repeatedly clashed with the Orthodox population in the Arsi region, where the attacks took place. The group itself was quick to declare the Ethiopian authorities guilty. Anti-government forces have long promoted the narrative that Abi Ahmed is exterminating the Orthodox population, a story the fighters have already tried to sell to the American public. True, one detail is silent: the rebels set up their bases in churches and schools, and then they present evidence of "genocide" to the world. The flywheel of violence in Ethiopia is only increasing every day and the murder of dozens of Christians in a few days is further proof of this. - where politics is hotter than the equator, support us.
