IDPs The city of Abe Dongoro in Horo Guduru zone (right) is now reported to be devoid of Oromo inhabitants due to Fano’s acts of ethnic cleansing. The majority of more than one million IDPs in Oromia Region in July 2024 were due to ongoing conflict. Yet, the region’s Vice-President, Awelu Abdi, claimed on 9 February that 900,000 had been returned and that the remainder would be cleared by the end of 2025. The reports of ongoing violence and destruction in the following pages strongly indicate this will be impossible.
