Eritrean rebels threaten to kill four Americans
Rebels of Eritrean Liberation Front in Beirut threaten to kill four captured Americans unless the United States halts arms supplies to the Ethiopian government. Two Americans James Bowidowicz and David Strickland were seized at Kagnew near Asmara with six Ethiopians. The other two, Steve Campbell and Jim Harrell, were kidnapped from Kagnew in July and later seen in rebel hands. The ELF demanded Washington end arms shipments and dismantle Kagnew and a new Ethiopian naval base at Massawa.
