Ethiopia: 75-Year-Old Civilian Brutally Murdered in Church by Abiy Ahmed Regime’s Forces

 In a shocking and disturbing incident, 75-year-old Mr. Fentaw Derbew, a civilian, was brutally murdered while attending a mass at Kobo Michael Church in Raya Kobo Woreda, North Wollo Zone in Ethiopia. According to eyewitnesses and sources, Mr. Fentaw Derbew was killed by the Abiy Ahmed regime’s forces.

Ethiopia regime had held Mr. Fentaw hostage for months, allegedly due to his son Fano Abebe Fentaw’s affiliation with the Amhara Fano National Force’s Eastern Command unit, where he serves as Head of Communications. During his captivity, Mr. Fentaw was reportedly subjected to physical abuse and torture.

After his release, Mr. Fentaw Derbew’s life was cut short in a brutal act of violence. The regime’s forces are accused of carrying out the murder, which has sparked widespread outrage and anger among the local community. Sources close to the matter indicate that the people of Kobo town are still reeling from the shock of the murder.

This heinous act is part of a larger pattern of violence against civilians. Ethiopia regime’s actions have raised concerns about the safety and security of innocent lives. In response to the murder, the regime has deployed a large number of troops to the city, reportedly out of fear that the assassination could spark a rebellion.

The murder of Mr. Fentaw Derbew has sparked widespread condemnation, and calls for justice and accountability are growing louder.
