Instead, they were involved in killings of regional authorities, he said.<\/p>\n

The minister added that the extremist forces have carried out large-scale looting in some areas of West Gojam and East Gojam and they have blocked the roads and restricted the movement of agricultural inputs such as fertilizer to the farmers.<\/p>\n

They have also blocked roads to prevent security forces from carrying out their law enforcement mission and they are engaged in an armed activities to overthrow the constitutionally constituted government in the region.<\/p>\n

As a result, the Amhara Regional State has requested the federal government to take measures and enforce law in the region as the situation has become very serious and cannot be controlled by the regular law enforcement system.<\/p>\n

The minister also said that a central command post has been established and started carrying out its activities.<\/p>\n
