MILITARY COMMUNIQUÉ
Ogaden National Liberation Front (ONLF)
28 December 2007
The Tigray Peoples Liberation Front (TPLF) regimes claims that it has
captured Ogaden National Liberation Front (ONLF) forces in a military
engagement in the Danot area is wishful thinking.
ONLF forces are largely intact, operational and continue to be effective.
The ONLF now has the capability to strike TPLF regime forces at will
throughout Ogaden including major military facilities.
If the TPLF Regime has inflicted significant losses on our forces, it has no
reason to continue to deny international journalists access to Ogaden to
verify their claims. The fact that they continue to deny access to major
media outlets is indicative of their failed military strategy in Ogaden.
