Civilians killed by Amhara militia.
Amhara militia were rounding up civilians and putting them in detention centers. People were killed in the streets or after being taken out of the prisons. A week later bodies started to wash up on the shores of a Sudanese village down stream of Humera. Some of the bodies showed stab wounds or bullet wounds and some had their hands tied behind their back. According to the Ethiopian government the clains of a massacre in Humera is false as the bodies might have been fighters killed on the battlefield in the Afar region.
