4 soldiers from Ethiopia arrive in Asmara

October 1st, 2009 |

ASMARA — Four soldiers who opposed the tribal junta’s ethnic apartheid policies in Ethiopia, have arrived in Asmara this week, according to Tigist Tesfa, Ethiopian Review’s correspondent in Eritrea.

The four soldiers are:

1. Corporal AbdulWahab AbudlGalf from Northern Command’s 21st Division,

2. Corporal GebreEgzihabher Amare from Northern Command’s  21st Division,

3. Corporal Jemal Mohammed Miruts from Northern Command’s 2oth Division, and

4. Private Abrham Getu Zeleke from Northern Command 21st Division.

Every day about 20 -30 Ethiopians who are brutalized by the Woyanne junta are currently escaping to Eritrean.

The refugees include students, professionals in various fields, soldiers and in recent days priests.

Many of the refugees join Ethiopian freedom fighters, and others live in Eritrea as political asylees or move on to other places such as Europe.
