He said that almost all the people he knows have fled the city. He also mentioned that hearing someone has died has become a joke because so many are being killed, and people don't even bother to make an effort to raise awareness about these deaths anymore because it's been soo normalized. They don't even know who's responsible because they're put in constant state of confusion, and the city looks as if it has been invaded.

Also, he shared that when he visited Gondar five months ago, by 5 pm or 6 pm (12 am Ethiopian time), his family members would call him in a panic, asking him to return home so nothing would happen to him, probably because of the curfew that was imposed on Amhara after the state of emergency, which has never been lifted despite the fake official claim that it ended in June 2024. He added that he is deeply worried for his family because they still live there.

This is the reality of the Amhara people under the genocidal regime of the OPDO.

This site was discovered in Delanta woreda after a successful operation last week, where hundreds of ENDF soldiers were eliminated along with high ranking officers.

Another report from Ethio Focus includes eyewitness testimony about a five year old girl who grabbed the barrel of a gun from armed Oromos, begging them not to kill her father as they pointed their weapons at his head.

The Selassie Orthodox Church committee members who were in the church were surrounded by armed Oromos and shot dead. Their bodies were later found scattered throughout the church.

These accounts represent only the available eyewitness testimonies regarding the ongoing genocide of Amharas in Wellega, Oromia region. The full scale of the tragedy is still not fully realized because the whereabouts of many who fled into the jungle remain unknown. Some left the area in critical condition, making it uncertain how many eventually succumbed to their injuries, while others were murdered in the jungle while attempting to escape. And there is a belief that the coming actions will be worse than they have been so far.

In the attacks against the Amhara people so far, an estimated 35 thousand Amharas have been displaced, and 4 villages have been completely destroyed. Out of 5 Orthodox churches that were attacked, 3 were completely destroyed and 2 were partially destroyed.

Oromia regional forces, alongside Oromo youth, filmed themselves proudly committing these crimes. They have massacred religious figures, elders, women, and children without remorse, vowing to continue until no Amharas are left.

"More than 250 Amhara civilians who had sought refuge at Gind Ansa St. Michael Monastery in Mender 3, Gida Ayana Woreda, East Wollega Zone, Oromia Region, were massacred amid an ongoing wave of attacks against Amhara communities in the area. Priests, monks, elderly people, mothers, pregnant women and children were among those killed.

The monastery massacre forms part of a wider wave of violence affecting Andode Dicho Kebele, Shashober, Fendika, Anger Gutin, Mender 3, Mender 4 and Mender 22 since August 18, 2026. Sources on the ground and survivor accounts identify Ethiopian National Defense Force (ENDF) soldiers, Oromia Region Gada Commando forces, the Abiy regime-backed Oromo Liberation Army (OLA) led by Jaal Mose, and armed Qeerroo (Oromo youth) groups among the forces involved in the violence.

Videos emerging from the affected area reportedly show Jaal Mose-led OLA fighters operating alongside Gada Commando forces during a raid on an Ethiopian Orthodox church.

Some of the most severe violence occurred at Debre Anbessa Gind Ansa St. Michael, where large numbers of civilians had taken refuge after fleeing attacks on surrounding communities. ENDF soldiers and Gada Commando forces surrounded the monastery compound and opened fire on civilians attempting to escape, using Bren machine guns, sniper rifles and Kalashnikov rifles.

Armed Qeerroo (Oromo youth) members operating under the cover of the security forces entered the monastery compound and attacked civilians with bladed weapons. Among those killed were pregnant women and infants as young as two months old.

Additional killings occurred throughout Mender 3, where more than 52 civilians were reported killed in areas affected by the violence.

A separate massacre occurred in Mender 22, several kilometers from Mender 3, where more than 44 Amhara civilians were killed. Among the victims were 85-year-old Aba Ayele Arega, a respected community elder known for mediating disputes and consoling grieving families, and his wife, Emahoy Eskedar Gelaw. New mothers and infants were also among those killed.

Some victims in Mender 22 were killed with sickles and machetes. In particularly disturbing cases, the weapons used in the killings were found still lodged in victims’ bodies when their remains were recovered for burial.

The continuing presence of ENDF soldiers and other armed forces has prevented residents from safely recovering and burying many of those killed. Bodies remain scattered throughout affected areas, with some reportedly being consumed by vultures and wild animals and others swept away by floodwaters.

The final death toll could rise further. Several civilians attempting to flee Mender 3 and Mender 22 were shot by ENDF soldiers and escaped while bleeding, leaving their whereabouts and condition unknown.

Across Andode Dicho, Shashober, Fendika, Anger Gutin, Mender 3, Mender 4 and Mender 22, the attacks have caused extensive civilian casualties, mass displacement and widespread destruction. Entire communities have been devastated, while homes and civilian property have been destroyed and livestock looted and taken away.

Thousands of residents have fled their communities amid continuing insecurity and fear of further attacks, leaving surviving residents unable to safely retrieve victims, bury the dead or return to their homes."

In East Wellega Zone, Gida Ayana, specifically in the area known as Mender (Village) 22, a massacre has resulted in the deaths of over 40 innocent ethnic Amhara civilians so far. Among them were 85 year old Aba (priest) Ayele Arega and his wife, Emahoy (Ethiopian Orthodox nun) Eskedar Gelaw, who were brutally killed with sharp weapons inside the orthodox church, along with dozens of Amharas who were hiding there for safety. Similar attacks have been carried out in other Amhara dominated villages in Wellega.

Surviving eyewitnesses told Mereb Media that it has been impossible to bury the dead bodies in the area. They explained that because the ENDF, the Gadaa Commando, and Qeerroo (Oromo youth) groups, who are organized under these forces and move around armed with sharp weapons, are stationed in the area, it has not been possible to rescue the severely wounded or bury the bodies of the innocent Amhara people killed in the attack.

The eyewitnesses added: "We tried to follow the attackers' movements when they left the area to rescue the wounded and bury the dead, but they returned immediately, forcing us to flee before we could finish retrieving them and burying the bodies.

This video is from Anderoricho Kebele, Gida Ayana Woreda, East Wellega Zone, Oromia Region.

This is part of the massacres being committed in Wellega as we speak by Oromia Gadaa commandos, Qeerroo, and other Oromia related forces.

Over hundreds of Amharas have been killed and thousands of homes have been set on fire by Oromia Gadaa commandos, Oromia militiamen, and Qeerroo (Oromo youth). Thousands have fled their homes for safety. The unlucky ones who couldn't flee were either burned alive inside their homes or shot dead by armed men, or hacked to death with machetes, hammers and whatever other cold weapons the Qeerroo had brought with them.

These extremist, genocidal Oromos are walking around burning the homes of non Oromos while holding sticks and machetes to attack residents. When they were about to burn another house, the cameraman screamed not to burn it because it was a Pentecostal church. After that he continued to celebrate what was happening. But who is going to pray in that church if you massacre the residents and displace those who survive?

"The honorable Amhara people and all our comrades-in-arms:

Our heroic Ansha Seyid Command has made history by securing a brilliant victory in a high-stakes battle against the enemy in the Mender Sost kebele of the Gida Ayana district.

This coordinated operation targeted the combined forces of the OPDO Gadaa Commando and the National Defense Force, who have been burning the homes of innocent Amharas and looting their property. Through our swift offensive action, we severely crushed the enemy and inflicted heavy casualties.

The military achievements and captured weaponry from this successful battle are as follows:

• Vehicle losses: We completely destroyed 13 convoy vehicles used by the enemy and successfully seized 2 patrol cars.
• Captured weaponry: We captured 70 Kalashnikov (AK-47) rifles, 3 Bren machine guns, and 2 sniper rifles, along with their full ammunition.
• Miscellaneous spoils: Our heroes managed to seize 2 quintals (approximately 200 kg) of currency notes (Birr) that the enemy had looted from civilians and was transporting.

The Ansha Seyid Command will strengthen and continue its struggle to safeguard the Amhara people, defend them from attacks, and secure their peace.

Victory to the Amhara people!
Commander of the Wellega (Bizamo) Ansha Seyid Command"

There are other videos of this kind by multiple Gadaa Commandos and Qeerroo who participated in looting whatever they could and selectively killing Amharas who remained in the towns. The majority of the Amharas were displaced, many of them are in the jungles and other places to save their lives from these genocidal forces.

She added that after he begged them to let him live because he was an only child, they went ahead and slaughtered him like an animal. After doing so, they played with his blood and called each other heroes for doing it.

Anti Amharas deliberately spread disinformation to weaken the truth and make the general public doubt the reality of what the Amhara people go through. Their ultimate goal is to make the tragedy seem less important, less severe, or completely invalid so that people don't give it attention or sympathy. They even use it as a card to play the victim, foster hatred, and encourage people to commit more crimes against Amharas by disinforming their own people that they are the ones who have been displaced, looted, raped, or massacred, by using the stories, pictures, and videos of Amhara people.

The genocide of Amharas in Mai Kadra is one example. Immediately after the massacre of over a thousand Amharas, human rights organizations went there and asked the survivors, the victims families, and people in the areas about the identity of the victims, and they said they were Amharas and targeted for being Amharas. However, after months of coordinated misinformation by various international news agencies promoting TPLF propaganda stating that the victims were not Amhara, they quietly denied the first reports released by the humanitarian organizations that reported from the ground right after it happened. By doing that, they weakened the truth, appropriated Amhara atrocities, and gave ammunition to anti Amharas to incite hatred and commit additional crimes.
