Addis Ababa, November 12, 2021 (Walta) – Ethiopia Current Issues Fact Check disclosed today that the photograph of a helicopter the terrorist group TPLF claimed to have shot down at Mille front, Afar region, is an image from a 2016 news story.
“The terrorist group TPLF just issued a disinformation statement using an image from a 2016 news story on ISIS written on The Times,” it said.
Many mouthpieces of the terrorist TPLF media, including its leaders said that “our anti-aircraft units in the Mille front have downed an MI-35 helicopter gunship this morning.”
Ethiopia Current Issues Fact Check also added that this fake image by TPLF comes following a statement yesterday highlighting milestones achieved in Mille and other fronts by the Ethiopian Government Communication Service.
