A glimpse of Afabet Sub-zone

Written by Habtom Tesfamichael
Eritrea has strategic significance for military purposes and that is why successive colonizers, from the Turks up to the Ethiopians, built up their military bases in this region.

There are many documented cases of atrocious acts by the British war planes, the Italians and, more significantly, the Ethiopians.

As a result, the inhabitants of the sub-zone were compelled to leave their villages.
