A video of the gruesome beheading of a young man in Ethiopia has sparked public outrage.

Authorities accuse Fano rebels from the northern Amhara region of committing the murder.

A post shared on Facebook after the killing claims to show Fano militants captured by the Oromo Liberation Army ( OLA ), another rebel group operating in the country’s Oromia region.

This is false: the footage, which AFP Fact Check already previously debunked, features Ethiopian soldiers detained by OLA forces in April 2024 .
