7:04Now PlayingEthiopian security forces have killed at least 140 people during the eight weeks of ongoing protests in the Oromia region.
The protests have been sparked by fears that a plan to expand the capital's administrative control into the Oromia region would displace Oromo farmers.
Triggered in mid-November by government plans to expand the country's capital, Addis Ababa, into the surrounding territories, protests by student activists, farmers and other residents from the region's Oromo ethnic majority have resulted in multiple shootings, beating and arrests by security forces, according to witnesses quoted by US-based Human Rights Watch (HRW).
