However, illegal forces in Oromia regional states, especially in Nekemte and Dembidolo, have tried to attack security forces by throwing hand grenades, in addition to obstructing the peace and stability of the people during the past two and three days.

Security forces have been taking the necessary precaution with great patience even under difficult situations to avoid loss of life while trying to ensure peace and security, the statement issued by the Command Post said.

If these forces do not refrain from their destructive actions immediately, based on the decree and the directives, security forces were ordered by the Command Post to take all the necessary measures against them, it said.

Moreover, members of the parliament (MPs) residing in Oromia have been submitting complaints to the Command Post repeatedly stating that these forces have been threatening them and their families by using social media, cell phone and in person.

Since this is an anti-democratic and destructive move, the Command Post would not tolerate it, the statement said, adding it would take legal measures against forces who were engaged in this kind of action.

The Command Post extended its gratitude to the people in various parts of the country for rallying along security forces and giving their life to protect loss of life and damages to properties.

The Command Post finally called on the public to strengthen their all-round supports for the success of the ongoing efforts of the government and security forces to fully restore peace in the country.
