A famed Ethiopian opposition group, Patriotic Ginbot 7, have officially returned to the country from their base in neighbouring Eritrea. State-run Fana broadcasting corporate reported that the group crossed into Ethiopia via the town of Humera on Saturday. Photos shared by Fana showed ‘ex-fighters’ in trucks waving Ethiopian and Eritrean flags. Parliament voted to lift that label on the group and others like the Oromo Liberation Front (OLF) and the Ogaden National Liberation Front (ONLF). Earlier in June, the group had announced a unilateral ceasefire – suspended all armed operations – with the view to engage in peaceful struggle.
