The video has been viewed more than 260,000 times and shared more than 700 times since being published on July 19, 2024 .
AFP Fact Check found that the footage was digitally manipulated.
Neither the altered nor original version features any threats against the current government.
Abebaw at no point warned the army would turn its weapons against the ruling party.
