The first reports were short ‘Press Releases’ which accompanied the OSG newsletter Sagalee Haara. They were published every two months initially but became longer and less frequent after OSG was unable to continue the newsletter. As the grip of the TPLF tightened on the flow of information from Ethiopia, information was sought more and more from refugees. Reports 46-49 are of refugees and their stories in Kenya, Somaliland, Djibouti and South Africa.

Abuses under the current Ethiopian government, led by Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed, are reported in Reports 50 and above.
