Administrative buildings, an airfield and the Aider elementary School were subjected to airstrikes.

[1] On 29 May 2000, the day of the start of the peace talks in Algeria, the Ethiopian Air Force struck the Eritrean cities of Asmera, Massawa and Mendefera.

Then the planes attacked the parking lots of military aircraft and helicopters and other objects.

The aviation fuel warehouse was completely burned down, the runway and the power supply system were damaged.
