October 15 - 2020 EL GEDAREFSix Sudanese women and a child were kidnapped by Ethiopian gunmen in El Gedaref on Tuesday. As reported by Radio Dabanga yesterday, the Lands Committee complains that Ethiopian gunmen are again wreaking havoc at the El Gedaref-Ethiopian border. The lack of clear border markers has made it easy for Ethiopian militants to occupy fertile farmlands in eastern El Gedaref. In particular in El Fashaga locality, Ethiopian farmers have been cultivating crops for decades. Farmers in El Fashaga and the El Gedaref governor have demanded that these lands be returned.
