<

Reuters report that it made further attacks inside
<
http://topics.bloomberg.com/eritrea/> 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."
