Faafan Posted November 30, 2009 Just a Summary of some of the things happening in the Occupied Somali region. Serious confrontation near Harar Wednesday, 25 November 2009 13:45 ONLF fighters According to information received by The Indian Ocean Newsletter, a deadly skirmish occurred on 16 November in a place known as Jaketa, situated between Harar and Babile in the east of Ethiopia. It pitted government soldiers of the South Eastern Command against unidentified rebel forces and is believed to have made several tens of victims among the government troops. Many of the wounded soldiers were treated at the Hiwot Fana Hospital and other hospitals in Harar. Although no organisation has yet officially claimed responsibility for this action, it is highly likely that those involved were ****** National Liberation Front (ONLF) rebels, the most active group in this region. However, according to some witnesses, several of these attackers spoke to each other in the Amhara language, which is not so common in the ranks of the ONLF. They may have been instructors from outside this region of Ethiopia. This military confrontation occurred after arms were stolen in Harar at the beginning of the month, a theft attributed to ONLF rebels (ION 1273). Source: African Intelligence An Ethiopian town under high surveillance Saturday, 28 November 2009 23:52 In the afternoon and evening of 3 November, the town of Harar in the eastern part of the country was under high military surveillance. Some army vehicles carrying machine guns drove through the town, checking the streets. The reason for this movement was that arms had been stolen from a military depot in the town. A certain Major Hassan Warsame Mohamed was arrested and transfered to Addis Ababa, accused of collaborating with agents of the ******National Liberation Front (ONLF, armed opposition) to carry out the theft. According to certain local observers it is not unusual for government army officers, including Tigrayans, to be involved in illegal arms deals in Ethiopia. 6 Sargaal oo ka goostey Ciidamada Wayaanaha Monday, 30 November 2009 00:42 Wararka naga soo gaadhaya magalaada Addis Ababa ayaa sheegaya in Ciidamada Wayaanaha ay soo wajahdey niyad jab xoogan kadib dagaalkii Eebo Cadow ee ay Ciidamada ONLF fuliyeen Nov 11.
