#Ethiopia: While the world focused on the Israel-Iran conflict, the Ethiopian gov’t-backed Oromo-Islamist groups tied to Al-Shabaab were massacring Orthodox Christians in Arsi, Oromia. Ethiopia is turning into an incubation center for the Muslim Brotherhood terrorist network.

Ethiopia: 34 Orthodox Christians have been killed in the Arsi, Oromia region.
Eight others remain hospitalized. Another eight are missing. Two were kidnapped.
These Christians were murdered by an ethno-nationalist group called the Oromo Liberation Army and is part of an ongoing pattern in the region.
The motivation behind the attacks is ethnic as much as it is religious, yet it is Christians who keep getting killed.
The OLA employs terrorism to pursue an independent Oromo state and frequently targets the Amhara tribe, many of whom are Orthodox Christians.
Many have condemned these killings and we add our voice to theirs.
Pray for the Christians of Ethiopia.
Today, five more Orthodox Christians were killed in the Arsi Zone, Oromia region Ethiopia, and many others have been kidnapped after being beaten. In just two weeks, the death toll has reached 30

Each day,Amhara people paying the price in blood.
This cannot go on.Fano leaders,Amhara activists& politicians must rise above ego.The struggle was never about self-glory. It’s about survival & justice.
At the very least, abide by one principle: do no harm to one another.
