Description A large number (possibly at least 30) of Ethiopian military vehicles including transport trucks and armored vehicles crossed the Ethiopia-Somalia border in the morning of 19/11 through the village of Balambale. A large part of these forces proceeded south towards Guri-Ceel where they settled temporarily around 10km north of that town. The forces were said to be waiting for the completion of a military camp 6km south of Guri-Ceel. Rumors from Guri-Ceel indicate that the camp may be used for the training of several thousand ASWJ militiamen. The Spokesman of the Ethiopian Foreign Ministry denied that any Ethiopian forces had entered Somalia.
