Members of the Defense Force in different areas of the Southern region are carrying out harvesting activities in farm plots belonging to families of martyrs and needy citizens.

So far, over 400 hectares of crops have been harvested in the villages of Adi-Guebo, Adi-Shibti, Shaka-Wedibisrat and Teraemni, among others through the campaign.

The initiative is in line with the endeavors to harvest crops before sustaining damage due to untimely rains, according to reports.
