This is so bad.
Kenyans should keep to their own territory since they have strained relationship with Somalia.

Plane, not even a fighter jet and they shot it down claiming it was a mistake or lack of communication. I see this as a deliberate act of provocation. I hope the two countries resolve this amicably.

Let peace reign

Nigeria and Ghana should quickly pick a side while South Africa and Egypt should pick their Ally.

Let's do some missile fight men!!
Let's teach Iran and America how to do it better.


But come to think of it, Ethiopians are trying to flex their muscle on little Kenya. Let them thank God it wasn't Nigeria. I trust Lai Moh, by now we would have deployed Obunike 1960 missles made in Aba.

dermmy:


The Ethiopian soldiers mistakenly believed the plane was on a "potential suicide mission" because they had not been informed about the "unusual flight" and the aircraft was flying low, the statement said.

"Because of lack of communication and awareness, the aircraft was shot down," the military said. "The incident … will require mutual collaborative investigation team from Somalia, Ethiopia and Kenya to further understand the truth."

First mistake, the plane was flying way too low in a disturbed region.

Second mistake, lack of communication.

These two key mistakes are red flags. Any serious country should be alarmed. Especially if their soldiers are battling religious extremists. No brainer, really. Instinctive self-defence mechanism.

Why shooting down the plane at the first place without proper investigation.... Hmmmm,Afica wise up.
Re: Ethiopia Admits Shooting Down Kenyan Aircraft Taking Medical Supplies To Somalia by Neddyogu(m): 9:49am On May 10, 2020
U wanna fly into another country's airspace and u didn't radio the authorities to request authorization? How were ground troops in a territory known for terrorist offensives to know u were carrying med supplies? Sorry collateral damage.

Mistakenly shooting of plane? Why on earth will they even shoot down a flying plane? That's MADNESS!
Bros dey have the right to shoot down... You can't just enter plain and start flying over some countries without communication.... there is a way they do there things sha... But if due process is not followed even soldiers for Aso rock go shoot down plane self..
Re: Ethiopia Admits Shooting Down Kenyan Aircraft Taking Medical Supplies To Somalia by Nobody: 9:52am On May 10, 2020
shooting down of planes unneccessarily is becoming a frequent occurence lately. peharps due to many irresponshble leader that find their way into leadership positions making irrespossible decisions.
Re: Ethiopia Admits Shooting Down Kenyan Aircraft Taking Medical Supplies To Somalia by ElectricalParts: 9:52am On May 10, 2020
Tehran at first denied that it shut down the Ukrainian plane before the United States proved through a video it was shut down by Tehran. Here maybe someone is claiming what it did not in other to claim its alertness. The United States I am sure may have the magic solution.

Any country has absolute right to shoot down any plane invading their airspace without approval. Same goes for the waterways.
Nothing will happen

They do but not the foolish way Ethiopia did....you warn an aircraft to turn back and if after several calls and warnings are not yielded to OR responded you then shoot down

besides in every sense of diplomacy you don't shoot down a civilian plane, you know it's source, flight type and charge them or report to ICAO sad

They mistakenly shut down the plane while on bush meat shooting hunter exercise.
Re: Ethiopia Admits Shooting Down Kenyan Aircraft Taking Medical Supplies To Somalia by egoldman(m): 10:07am On May 10, 2020
This excuse is lame, why don't you scramble two fighter jets on each side of the plane and force it to land, search the plane and its screw.

Due to the high level of terrorism in Somalia, it's not a surprise the plane was shot down. But did the pilot radio in or did the soldiers deliberately shot the plane down. Unfortunately in diplomatic scandals like this, the truth never really comes out and the whole situation is swept under a carpet.

Ordinary Ethiopia is now shooting down civilian planes

Ethiopia that relied heavily on humanitarian aid to get out of famine several decades ago? undecided
