Before the tears of Ethiopia have dried, another heinous massacre has shaken the country. According to local media reports, at least 34 Ethiopian Orthodox Christians were killed on Thursday, when a group of gunmen opened fresh fire in Ethiopia's Oromia region. The latest mass murder has raised the death toll to 94 in less than three weeks. The massacre reportedly took place in Endato village in Robe district, where armed perpetrators opened fire at the residents, killing at least 34 and leaving several others injured. Shops and other properties were damaged in the attack. The attack, the latest blow to the nation already ailing from two previous attacks on October 20 and 24 in Oromia's Merti and Shirka districts, in which at least 60 Orthodox Christians were killed, has left the country in tremors. Concerns have been heightened about the safety of religious communities in Oromia, where lingering armed conflict have displaced civilians and fueled insecurity. Let us lift our heartfelt prayers to the merciful God, so that He may deign to wipe out the tears of the sorrowing people and protect them from further dangers. #EthiopiaNews #OromiaViolence #ChristianPersecution #EthiopianOrthodoxChurch #PrayForEthiopia #shalomworldnews
