A well-respected local community leader and family head, Mahammad Amin, who had been ‘contacted by the regime many times’ because of his pride in being an Oromo, from Cabbii Qaammee village, Shanan Kolu district, was killed by ENDF on 17 September (ONM). ‘Mr. Mahammed was not a criminal but the soldiers shot and killed him without asking any questions just because he was an Oromo, the residents added.’ Soldiers came from the city and were ‘beating the community and looting their properties.’
