| | War Crimes - Ethiopia : Attempted Coup 1960 (Site not responding. Last check: ) |
 | | The Eritrean problem, inherited from Haile Selassie's regime, was a matter of extensive debate within the Derg. |
 | | It was a dispute over policy toward Eritrea that resulted in the death of the PMAC's first leader, General Aman, an Eritrean, on November 23, 1974, so-called "Bloody Saturday." Hereafter, the Derg decided to impose a military settlement on the Eritean Liberation Front (ELF) and the Eritrean People's Liberation Front (EPLF). |
 | | Attempts to invade rebel-held Eritrea failed repeatedly, and by mid-1978 the insurgent groups controlled most of the countryside but not major towns such as Keren, Mitsiwa, Aseb, and a few other places. |
