Rome (dpa) - The Italian government on Friday condemned an attack by Ethiopia on neighbouring Eritrea, and appealed to the two Horn of Africa nations to refrain from other violent acts against each other. The Foreign Ministry in Rome was following with "deep concern" news of the foray launched by Ethiopian troops into Eritrean territory, it said in a statement. Ethiopia said on Thursday it sent troops 16 kilometres into Eritrean territory to attack camps run by "subversive groups." Ethiopia often accuses Asmara of aiding rebel groups hostile to Addis Ababa. "Firmly condemning every recourse to violence", the Ministry appealed to the two sides "to refrain from other measures that violate fundamental principles of international co-existence." The statement also referred to the need for both countries to fully implement the Algiers Agreement to end a border war fought from 1998 to 2000 between Eritrea and Ethiopia - both of which are former Italian colonies. Their shared border is still poorly defined. The war left over 100,000 people dead and the two remain arch-rivals. dpa pwm shg cfn hl Authors: Peter Mayer http://en.europeonline-magazine.eu/italy-condemns-ethiopian-attack-on-eritrea_197213.html

Ethiopia Denies Report That It Made More Attacks Inside Eritrea
Ethiopia’s government denied a Reuters report that it made further attacks inside Eritrea. “That’s not correct,” Getachew Reda, the Foreign Ministry’s public diplomacy and communications director, said by phone from Ethiopia’s capital, Addis Ababa, today. “There’s been no further attacks” after a raid two days ago inside Eritrea’s territory, he said. Ethiopian troops today carried out more attacks on rebels in the north of Eritrea around Badme, Reuters said, citing an unidentified Ethiopian government official. Three military posts where the Eritrean government trained rebels hostile to Ethiopia were targeted on March 15, State Minister of Communications Shimeles Kemal said. “The information is false,” he said by phone today about the Reuters report. “It’s an absolute lie.” http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2012-03-17/ethiopia-denies-report-that-it-made-more-attacks-inside-eritrea.html
Ethiopian troops have carried out more attacks on Ethiopian rebels inside Eritrea on Saturday, a day after Eritrea urged United Nations action against Ethiopia for a previous attack inside its territory.
(Reuters) "We've carried out further attacks on targets inside Eritrea. This time it's in the north section around Badme," a senior Ethiopian government official told Reuters on Saturday.
"We were once again successful. This strike was part of our plan to take proportional measures that included the attacks in Eritrea's southeast."
Ethiopia announced on Thursday its troops raided three military bases in Eritrea which it said were used by Ethiopian rebels, several weeks after accusing the Eritrean government of planning to kidnap Western tourists.
The official did not give details about who the troops targeted, but said Ethiopia's government would make a more detailed announcement later in the day. (Reporting by Aaron Maasho; Writing by James Macharia; Editing by Sophie Hares)
