  • Briefing Notes 44
    Group 62 – Information Centre for Asylum and Migration Briefing Notes 28 October 2019 Ethiopia Dozens killed in protests in Ethiopia Latest reports state that at least 67 people have been killed and more than 200 injured in anti-government protests in the capital Addis Ababa and the surrounding region. Amnesty International criticised police for shooting at demonstrators with live ammunition. However, the dead apparently included five members of the security forces, who had been killed by thrown stones. The police stated that 19 demonstrators had been killed by the security forces. The others had died during conflicts between followers of Prime Minister Abiy and anti-government demonstrators. The conflicts broke out during a march protesting an alleged police action against Oromo activists and the media entrepreneur Jawar Mohammed. Jawar claimed the government had ordered the withdrawal of his bod- yguards, leading him to fear for his life. Reuters reported that more than a thousand Oromo, for the most part youthful, had gathered in front of his house and chanted “Down with Abiy.” Copies of Abiy’s book “Medemer” were also burnt during the protests. The book had been published and distributed throughout the country shortly after Abiy had been promised Nobel Peace Prize two weeks before. Unlike recent protests, this new wave does not have any ethnic background. Both Abiy and Jawar are members of Ethiopia’s largest national group of the Oromo. Jawar, a US citizen born in Ethiopia and founder of the independent Oromia Media Network, had only returned from exile to his homeland in mid-2018 and had supported Prime Minister Abiy's reform plans.
