| Ethiopians kill 3 Somalis, injure 5 |
| 2008-05-12 |
| At least three Somalis are killed and five more injured as Ethiopian soldiers open fire in a market in the South-central city of Baidoa. The bloodshed took place in Baidoa downtown on Sunday while a convoy of Ethiopian soldiers attacked the marketplace and destroyed a number of small shops there. The convoy was reportedly deployed from the Capital, Mogadishu. Similar to their previous attacks, the soldiers began killing civilians in the marketplace, said a Press TV correspondent from Mogadishu. A Somali man who refused to give his name said that the Ethiopian soldiers had lost their self-confidence and they desperately kill civilians before they are targeted themselves. Ordinary civilians are the main victims in an ongoing war in Somalia. |
