Fanno Captain Abebe Sewmehon, The Federal Government of Ethiopia, & the Regional Government of Amhara Regional state have continued the mass arrests they have orchestrated against Amharas who speak up against the Amhara Genocide and TPLF’s repeated invasion into the region.

The government now has detained Captain Abebe. He like many other Fannos in the region willingly showed up when the government called people to arms to defend against TPLF’s invasion last June , 2021. #FreeAbebeSewmehon #ProtectFreedomFighters

Late May 2022, Captain Abebe has been targeted by the government where his 3 years old boy and wife were briefly detained in order to pressure him to surrender. The government now has detained Captain Abebe. He was about to release a track that documented his ordeal.

GPE has released a statement about the largescale mass arrest that the government is undertaking in Amhara Region & Addis Ababa. The estimated number of detainees that are taken to undisclosed locations has now gone over 20,000.
The continued targeting of Amharas by the regime in Ethiopia while TPLF expanded it's invasion into Afar and Amhara regions is extremely concerning. The state led kidnapping of Fanno Abebe's child is reported here:
The likeness of Captain Abebe Sewmehon's boy has been used as a symbol of the wide-scale targeting of Amharas for the campaign diaspora ethnic Amharas launched in opposition of the mass arrest and abduction of Amharas.

OLA fighters were also killed by a few Amhara residents that evaded
[3] a prior disarming campaign and tried to defend themselves from the onslaught of OLA. OLA fighters & supporters then came up with a complex web of disinformation that led to Amharas being blamed for the attacks. However, they proceeded with their campaigns to overtake zones in
