Ethiopian Muslim activists launched media campaigns on social media platforms against the government, which they accuse of demolishing mosques. The authorities are criticized by the affected citizens, and the authorities also face charges of bias towards certain nationalities, which the responsible authorities deny.

"There is no special targeting of mosques, as some of those who have appeared in dozens of videos claim," Ethiopian writer and researcher Ali Omar said. "Thousands of mosques should have been paid to the sanctity of what they should be," he said.
