Tigrayan forces have declared they are engaged in a 'full-blown war' with the Ethiopian army, marking the end of four years of fragile peace in northern Ethiopia. Fighting has been reported in three regions, including Tigray. This week, the Tigray People’s Liberation Front (TPLF) formed an opposition alliance with former rivals, stating their intention to overthrow the government in Addis Ababa. This escalation is the most significant since a peace deal in 2022 that concluded a previous civil war. Both the government and the TPLF have accused each other of violating the terms of the agreement, with several commitments remaining unfulfilled.
