Residents say the armed conflict in the Amhara region, which has been raging for nearly two years, has intensified in recent weeks. Government forces and Fano militants are also reporting that each other has suffered heavy casualties. The Amhara region, the second largest region in the country, is embroiled in a conflict over whether to sign the peace agreement that ended the bloody Tigray War. They say that the conflict in the Amhara region that has erupted since April 2015 has led residents to bitter suffering and despair, in addition to the lives they have lost.
