Tension intensifies between Eritrea and Ethiopia

By -

Eritrea has blamed Ethiopia for dispatching an

assault at the nations' vigorously mobilized

fringe.

Ethiopia has not remarked on the reported

battling in the Tsorona region, about midway

along the wilderness.

Inhabitants on the Ethiopian side of the outskirt

reported listening to gunfire and seeing a huge

development of troops and big guns towards the

outskirt.

A peace bargain in 2000 finished the nations' two-

year war yet it has not been completely actualized.

The contention, over the precise area of the

outskirt prompted the passings of an expected 80,000

individuals.

Eritrea commends 25 years of autonomy

Ethiopia "unleashed an assault against Eritrea on

the Tsorona Focal Front. The reason and

implications of this assault are not clear," the

Eritrean government said in a short articulation

issued on Sunday night.

It doesn't say any setbacks.

Course of events - A past filled with pressure

1991 - Eritrea picks up autonomy from

Ethiopia after long affable war

1998-2000 - outskirt war leaves an expected

80,000 dead

2002 - limit commission draws outskirt

what's more, puts fervently Badme in Eritrea

2004 - Ethiopia acknowledges outskirt administering "in

rule" yet calls for exchange with Eritrea

2006 - limit commission gives the

nations a year to execute administering

2008 - UN closes peacekeeping mission

without outskirt delineated

2012 - Ethiopia assaults positions inside

Eritrea focusing on "subversive gatherings"

Ethiopia's Data Clergyman Getachew Reda,

who is out of the nation, told the BBC he was

not mindful of the battling.

As a feature of the Algiers peace understanding marked in

2000 both nations consented to acknowledge the decision

of an autonomous limit commission over the

area of the wilderness as "last and official".

Yet, after the commission decided that the debated

town of Badme was in Eritrea, Ethiopia at first

declined to consent to the fringe boundary and

at that point called for discourse before it would

execute the choice.

Eritrea dismisses this and as an outcome the

nations have following been in a condition of "not one or the other

war nor peace", says the BBC's Emmanuel

Igunza in Nairobi.

Conflicts at the fringe have happened previously

in any case, they are uncommon events.

Eritrea a month ago stamped 25 years since it

picked up autonomy from Ethiopia after a long

common war.

Women Self Defense Techniques

lot of women feel afraid when walking the streets alone at night - all you have to do is ask around to realise just how many of us are fed-up with walking home clutching our keys between our fingers. Of course, two men can be extremely unequally matched when it comes to strength and size, but the sad truth is that the majority of women can put up little fight against the majority of men purely because of our biological make-up. And that’s a scary thought. Progress certainly needs to be made to reduce attacks - be they sexual assault or robbery - but as that doesn’t look likely any time soon, learning self-defence is a wise move for women of all ages. Top British mixed martial artist Helen ‘Hellraiser’ Harper, who specialises in Jui Jitsu, believes all women should know more self-defence because it brings not only safety but confidence. “In my opinion, women don't have the confidence they should in life let alone in defence,” she told The Independent. “Learning to fend off an at

A cargo plane has crashed into the sea off Ivory Coast, close to Abidjan airport, killing four people and injuring six. The wreckage of the turboprop plane, which was carrying ten people, was swept toward a beach where rescuers treated surviving crewmen on the sand. All four of the dead are Moldovan while four French nationals and two Moldovans were injured. Local police told AFP the aircraft had been trying to land when it crashed. According to local news site Ivoire Matin one person was taken into custody after the crash. It is unclear if they are a member of the crew. Reuters news agency reports that the plane crashed during a storm with heavy rain and lightning. The plane was a Ukrainian-made Antonov chartered by the French army as part of its anti-jihadist Operation Barkhane, a French military source told AFP
