Fano forces (file/SM)BorkenaToronto – No signs indicate an end to the fighting between Fano forces and government troops in the Amhara region of Ethiopia. In the Jawi area, Fano forces claim victory. The regional administration is allegedly involved in organizing a criminal gang in the area under the name of “Fano,” but Fano forces are reportedly engaging it militarily. In a video released this week, Zemene Kassie, leader of Fano forces in Gojjam, is seen confirming the development. Activists based in the diaspora are expressing the strong view that negotiation at this point is not in the interest of the Fano/ Amhara cause.
