ONLF is "now in a state of crisis" says Ethiopian Govt

[Queen_Arawello]

Claims by the Ethiopian regimes Communication Minister, Bereket Simon, that the Ogaden National Liberation Front (ONLF) is "now in a state of crisis and very weak" can only be described as wishful thinking which is far from reality and bordering on fantasy.

The fact of the matter is that the ONLF's operational capacity is now higher than at any point since the start of the organizations armed struggle. It is precisely because the Ethiopian regime seeks to conceal from the international community the widespread support the people of Ogaden have for the ONLF and the exponential growth of the ONLF's military might that members of the international media are denied unfettered access to Ogaden.

The ONLF has defeated every major military campaign launched by the Ethiopian regime in Ogaden over the last two years and is on the offensive in all operational theaters in the Ogaden. Defections of the regimes troops are on the rise and, in some areas, Ethiopian troops are selling their weapons to ONLF military commanders.

The most recent claim by the regimes communication minister is clearly designed to instill a false sense of confidence in oil exploration companies which the regime is trying to lure back to Ogaden.

The communication ministers claim that "The situation in Ogaden now is improving by the day" is a gross misrepresentation of the true state of affairs in Ogaden and demonstrates the regimes continuing efforts to conceal the suffering it has inflicted on the people of Ogaden. It is also a response to growing international concern over the deliberate and systematic campaign of collective punishment, war crimes and genocide against the civilian population of Ogaden.


The ONLF will continue to engage this regime wherever and whenever it enters Ogaden, we will also further strengthen our cooperation and coordination with other oppressed nations and members of the political opposition who respect our peoples legitimate rights to self-determination.

This is just wishful thinking on the Woyane side, far from the truth. ONLF is at it's peak since it is inception. There are thousands of newly trained ONLF freedom fighters that has been recently dispatched and are causing undeniable casualties to the Woyanes. ONLF is now functioning in all provinces and are getting new volunteer recruits that are tired of humiliation and ready to defend and die with dignity for their country. Just last month a high ranking official (Colonel Manos) was killed by the brave ONLF around Wardheer area. So this is just a wishful thinking, Woyanes days are numbered.....
