August 3, 2013 - Ethiopian government forces open fire on unarmed demonstrators throughout the country, killing 25 and injuring dozens more, according to Ethiopian activists who took part in the demonstrations. 

One witness says at least one child was among the the dead. He also stated government security forces arrested over 1,500 protesters on Friday.
