The reclaiming of lost territory, argued the UNPO article, was merely a cover story to attack the support base of OLA. ‘If the government does at some point decide to step in and restrain its attacks, they will likely try to appear as the peacemaker and the populations’ only source of security, while sowing hatred and distrust between Oromos and their neighbours.’ Woman detainee beaten The picture (right) of a woman being beaten was sent by informant W1 on 10 September. He reported that she was being detained in Agarfa, East Bale zone. No other information was available.
