Hamero is one of the 47 woredas in the Somali Region of Ethiopia, named after its major town, Hamero. Part of the Fiq Zone, Hamero is bordered on the south by Dihun, on the west by the Erer and Shebelle Rivers which separate it from the Oromia Region, on the north by Fiq, on the east by the Degehabur Zone, and on the southeast by Segeg. The map of the Oromia Region published by the Disaster Prevention and Preparedness Agency varies from the one from UN-OCHO by showing Salahaad woreda occupying a western strip of its territory. Hamero was one of three locations in the Somali Region on 12 November 2009, where about 200 Ogaden National Liberation Front fighters were killed in a clash with the Somali Regional New Police. Other reported locations were Higlaley in the Degehabur Zone and Riga in the Korahe Zone.
