Tigray leader warns of possible renewed conflict due to factional disputes; calls for support from the federal government. 25 foreign missions endorse cessation of hostilities following TPLF split and territorial control issues in Tigray.
Getachew Reda, President of the Tigray Regional Interim Administration, voiced concerns regarding the potential for renewed civil conflict in northern Ethiopia. This warning follows the recent capture of a pivotal town by a faction of the Tigray People’s Liberation Front (TPLF), which split into rival factions last year. Reda accused the breakaway group of forging alliances with external forces, particularly Eritrea, which could exacerbate tensions further.
The situation in Tigray is delicate, with increasing tensions following the TPLF factional split and territorial disputes. The international community, as represented by 25 foreign missions, is advocating for the cessation of hostilities under the Pretoria Agreement to avert escalation. Continued observation of developments will be essential as both local and international parties seek to maintain stability in the region.
