Ethiopian soldiers discreetly cross the border of Djibouti
Indian Ocean Newsletter | “Having to contend with the danger of destabilisation by the Front pour la Restauration de l’Unité et de la Démocratie armé (FRUD armé) and the ineffectiveness of his own armed forces, Forces Armées Djiboutiennes (FAD), President Ismail Omar Guelleh of Djibouti once again called big brother Ethiopia for help So, the Ethiopian National Defense Forces (ENDF) have been grouping on the Djibouti-Ethiopia border since March 1. At 8 a.m. on March 3, eight ENDF trucks crossed the border at Alayto-le-Boyna. It would seem that FRUD armé has no intention of retreating and that there is therefore a real risk of a clash with the ENDF.”
