Toronto – At least 13 farmers are reportedly killed in a fresh drone attack in Gojjam. It occurred on  Tuesday in the morning in Enarje Enawga district, Felege Berhan town, according to an Ethiopian Media Services(EMS)  report.

The target of the attack was Gubae Mariam Elementary school. According to the source, there were five rounds of strikes.  

Fano Yohannes Alemayehu, deputy public relation of Gojjam Fano forces, has confirmed the attack to EMS. He added that one of the victims was a fano member who was in the area for work. 

The unending drone strikes in the Amhara region of Ethiopia are increasingly being seen as – by ethnic Amharas and other Ethiopians who are critical towards Abiy Ahmed’s government non-stop war in the country – ethnic cleansing against Amhara. 

The last four weeks saw intensified drone attacks in the region as government forces found it unrealistic to achieve what they called “final operation” to eliminate fano forces or at least to weaken them militarily and force them to negotiate. 

Many fano leaders are vowing the government will never be able to defeat them. They are claiming that they have captured hundreds of government soldiers in the latest rounds of fighting in different parts of the Amhara region. 

The Ethiopian government has not remarked about the drone attacks in Gojjam areas over the past few weeks.
