Ethiopia, Eritrea trade accusations over border incident

ADDIS ABABA- Ethiopia and Eritrea are trading accusations over an incident in a disputed border area, with Ethiopia on Monday confirming its military had taken "proportional measures" against Eritrea in response to an attempted attack in the Tsorona area the day before.

 

"The attack heavily weakened Eritrean military's attacking capacity," Ethiopia's Communications Affairs Office said.

 

In a statement late Sunday, Eritrea's Information Ministry accused Ethiopian troops of carrying out attacks against Eritrean positions in the Tsorona Central Front.
