60 Christians killed in Ethiopia, Africa

At least 60 Orthodox Christians were killed during two recent attacks in Ethiopia, reports International Christian Concern.  

According to the Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church’s Holy Synod, 14 people were killed on October 20 in the Merti district, and an additional 46 were killed on October 24 in the Shirka district. The church also reported that more than 20 people were seriously wounded and 20 homes were burned down.

Hailu Adugna, a spokesperson for the Oromia regional government, said that he believes the Oromo Liberation Army is responsible for the attacks. He reportedly accused them of trying to provoke ethnic and religious conflict to divert attention from their military losses in the north. 

Investigators with the United Nations have accused the group of rapes, kidnappings, and killings. Other entities have documented government forces conducting disappearances, indiscriminate drone strikes, and extrajudicial killings. 

The Oromo Liberation Army is part of the Ethiopian Peoples’ Forces Alliance for Survival — seven groups that formed in September to oust Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed’s government.

According to Open Doors, Ethiopia, Africa is the 37th most dangerous country worldwide for Christians.
