The U.N. High Commissioner for Human Right Zeid Ra’ad al Hussein said “The use of live ammunition against protesters in Oromiya and Amhara, the towns there of course would be a very serious concern for the UN.”
Zeid urged the Ethiopian killing machine to allow access for international observers into the Amhara and Oromiya regions so that they can establish what has happened and that the security forces, if it is the case that they have been using excessive force, that they do not do so and promptly investigate of course these allegations.
Zeid also said that any detainee who had been peacefully protesting should be released promptly.
