According to local sources, Ethiopian authorities have started arresting prominent Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church clergy and religious teachers in what observers believe is a crackdown on voices that publicly condemned the recent massacre of Orthodox Christians in Asko Woreda of East Arsi Zone, Oromia Region.

The arrests follow reports that more than 53 Orthodox Christians were killed, over 280 remain missing, hundreds of homes were destroyed, and the historic 101-year-old Telata Chefa St. Gabriel Church was burned during a large-scale attack allegedly carried out by Oromo Liberation Army (OLA/Shene) militants against Orthodox Christian communities in East Arsi Zone between May 31st to June 2nd.

Among those arrested is Deacon Zelalem Taye, a well-known young gospel preacher recognized for his teaching, counseling work, and extensive service to Orthodox Sunday schools. He was reportedly detained in Addis Ababa and is believed to have been targeted after writing about the killings of Christians in Arsi.

Priest Getnet Aytenew, a prominent Orthodox priest known for his educational content on social media and his commentary on church affairs, was also reportedly arrested. Sources indicate his detention is linked to his writings regarding the massacre of Orthodox Christians in Arsi.

Authorities also detained Priest Dr. Mezgebu Kassa, a respected theologian, researcher, author, and former Chief Executive Officer of EOTC TV. Dr. Mezgebu is known for numerous theological publications, including the book Betré Haymanot and the internationally published Theanthropic Ethics in Conversation with Autonomy and Heteronomy. He is being held at the Federal Police detention center in Mexico Square, Addis Ababa.

In addition, Yeneta Betre Mariam Abebaw, a prominent Orthodox scholar and educator known for making traditional church teachings widely accessible through digital platforms, was arrested in Gonder City. He is the author of several widely circulated works on Orthodox theology, apologetics, and Ge’ez language studies.

The arrests have generated concern among church followers and observers, who note that all four individuals are known primarily for religious teaching, theological scholarship, and public advocacy. Reports from multiple sources suggest that the detentions may be connected to their public statements and writings regarding the killings, destruction of churches, and humanitarian crisis affecting Orthodox Christian communities in East Arsi Zone.

The wave of arrests comes amid growing criticism of the government’s response to the violence, with local sources alleging that survivors remain trapped in affected areas while humanitarian assistance faces significant obstacles in reaching displaced and wounded civilians.

The attacks on Ethiopia’s Orthodox churches in Oromia recently and sadly ongoing for years are shocking, and officials should be doing more to stop it. It is specific targeting of these Orthodox communities.

But it’s not clear to me that “Islamists” are doing this, but rather extremist Oromo nationalists. Maybe some might be Islamists as well, but this seems timed more for national destabilization because of elections and to inflame tensions.

[Global Christian Relief @GC_Relief]

Christians are being killed in Ethiopia. This is not a distant tragedy. We have walked alongside believers in Nigeria who know this grief intimately. Communities wiped out, churches burned, families shattered. The persecution is real. The need for the world to wake up is urgent.

Why isn’t this on the front page of every newspaper??!

[Orthodoxy Daily News @OrthodoxyNews]

Christians have been killed by Oromo Islamist extremists in Ethiopia. While Ethiopia is a majority-Christian country with an ancient Orthodox history, regions within the country like Oromia and Somali have experienced targeted killings driven by militant Islamic extremism.

The ongoing genocidal violence against Orthodox Christian communities in Arsi should alarm everyone regardless of religion, ethnicity, or political affiliation.

Over the past several years, and with renewed intensity in recent months, reports have emerged of Orthodox Christians being killed, churches burned, clergy targeted, families displaced, and entire communities living under fear and insecurity in Oromia, particularly in Arsi.

The video shows a man removing Christian crosses from the necks of women and children. For Christians, the cross is not merely an ornament; it is a sacred symbol of faith, identity, and spiritual devotion. No person, especially a child, should be subjected to intimidation, coercion, or humiliation because of their religious beliefs.

Taken together, reports of violence, the destruction of churches, the displacement of Christian families, and incidents such as those depicted in this video raise serious concerns about the state of religious freedom and the safety of Christian communities in parts of Ethiopia.

The Christians in Arsi deserve protection. The victims deserve justice. The displaced deserve support. And Ethiopia deserves leaders who will defend the rights and dignity of all citizens regardless of religion or ethnicity.

The protection of religious freedom is not a Christian issue or a Muslim issue. It is a human rights issue.

#Ethiopia: Why has Ethiopia’s Oromia Region become a slaughterhouse for Christians since Abiy Ahmed came to power? Why did Abiy wage war against Tigray (2020–2022) and Amhara (2023–present), regions where the majority of the population is Christian?
The video shows the answer.
