Last Tuesday, militants opened an attack in Aseko Woreda of Arsi Zone in Oromia Region which left 3 civilians killed say residents.
In addition to the killed victims 3 others were injured and property was looted say local residents.
They said the attack was carried out by the “Shene” armed group, and that at least 400 households have been displaced and are facing a severe situation.
Efforts to obtain responses on the matter from the Oromo Liberation Army and the government were unsuccessful.
The group which is called “Shene” but refers to itself as the Oromo Liberation Army has previously denied allegations of commiting similar crimes by saying their militants do not target civilians and civil facilities.
