 KEBRIDEHAR, Ethiopia (AP) - In the desert stretches of eastern Ethiopia, locals accuse soldiers fighting an insurgency of burning villages to the ground, committing gang rape and killing people "like goats."
The allegations have drawn the attention of international human rights campaigners to this remote corner of a key U.S. ally.
Ethiopia's prime minister says his troops are fighting against a separatist movement in the region known as the Ogaden, and he denies that soldiers have committed such atrocities.
