Defecting Ethiopian soldiers who arrived here opposing the racist policy of the TPLF regime said that the regime is closely controlling members of its Army not to follow up the Eritrean media outlets.

The soldiers are Lema Debele, Bunie Seid and Tadele Mulatu all from the Oromo ethnic group, Adisu Mulie and Buzuneh Burqa both from the Debub Hizboch ethnic group, and Omar Abdalla Mohammed from the Afar ethnic group.

Private Bunie Seid disclosed that senior Army commanders of the regime have issued strict orders prohibiting any Army member from accessing the Eritrean Radio or Television at any time, in a bid to suppress Army members from knowing the truth.
