Don’t forget to report what Fanno is doing to innocent civilians, Oromos, and other ethnic groups, as well as the infrastructure destroyed by Fanno.
Fannno is a cannibal, terrorist, massacring priests, children, and nuns, and involved in the robbery of private and public assets.
Fanno attacked police stations and public and private infrastructure, killed innocent civilians, and captured unarmed soldiers.
No single Amhara supports Fanno unless intimidated and compelled to join it, an animal cannibal group. Several reports are coming in that Amhara people are forced to give their goats, sheep, alcohol, and food supply to Fanno.
I think Shene is the biggest threat to civilians not Fanno. As the Washington reported, Fannos are attacking civilians so far. Shene is motivated by hate and violence instead of peace. Giving any credit to this organization is not fair and inhumane.
