东正教埃塞俄比亚人周末庆祝梅斯克尔节，这是他们日历上最神圣的日子之一。
Orthodox Ethiopians celebrated Meskel over the weekend, one of the holiest days on their calendar.
但今年，庆祝活动被一场旨在推翻埃塞俄比亚政府的武装叛乱所笼罩。
But this year, the festivities were overshadowed by an armed rebellion aimed at overthrowing the Ethiopian government.
主要庆祝活动在首都亚的斯亚贝巴举行，但全国多个地区遭到激烈战斗的蹂躏，其中包括据报道发生在距首都仅45公里处的一次袭击。
While the main celebration took place in the capital Addis Ababa, heavy fighting ravished several regions across the country, including an attack reported only 45 km away from the capital.
