Video documentary: "n'us gn liEli teamir," The History of EPLF navy: After
the Second Congress of the EPLF an offensive force was proposed and created
with a base in Sudan. These forces played a critical role at the Battle of
Massawa when they sunk several Ethiopian warships in the harbor. At the
close of the Eritrean War of Independence the balance of the Ethiopian Navy
was inherited by this Naval force. Since independence the Eritrean Navy has
expanded its fleet of high-speed patrol boats. This branch of the Eritrean
Defence Forces served with distinction under the command of then Commander
Tewolde Kelati. The current Commander of the Eritrean Naval Forces is Major
General Hummed Ahmed Karikare. The Eritrean Naval Forces Headquarters is in
Massawa.
