In Pictures: Oromo Liberation Front (OLF) fighters in southern Ethiopia
Reuters photojournalists captured pictures of Oromo Liberation Front (OLF) fighters in southern Ethiopia near the border town of Moyale. According to the group’s leaders, its mission is to lead “the national liberation struggle of the Oromo people against the Abyssinian colonial rule.”
The OLF, which has offices in Washington D.C. and Oromo supporters worldwide, says it has a strong anti-terrorism policy and it would go “an extra mile in search of peaceful resolution of the political crisis” in Ethiopia. Oromo is the largest ethnic group in Ethiopia and nearly one million Oromos also live in northern Kenya.
