How Can You Help?
Oromo refugees fleeing Zenawi's state-sponsored terrorism in Oromia are currently facing more crises in Yemen and North Africa
due to the conditions in those countries.
Since the military occupation of Oromia in 1991 by Zenawi's TPLF forces,
thousands of Oromos have been forced to flee to neighboring countries in the region.
Here are the latest news headlines on Oromo refugees in the Horn of Africa, Yemen and North Africa.
It's especially saddening for refugees to be affected by internal crises of their temporary

responded to this question?

We, the undersigned, are demanding answers from UNHCR's office in Yemen whom

conditions they face with UNHCR refusing to provide adequate protection.
