Tigray Conflict: Will it alter Ethiopia's dynamics
The Ethiopian region of Tigray has experienced a serious military escalation after the Tigray People's Liberation Front (TPLF) managed to seize the Mekelle Airport, the regional capital, and has begun fighting a defensive war against federal government forces. This escalation comes after the front formed an armed alliance with other groups aimed at overthrowing Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed's government. The situation has led to the suspension of commercial flights and raised fears of a full-scale escalation, with expectations that federal forces will deploy drones and heavy artillery to weaken the front’s capabilities while avoiding a large ground invasion. It is worth noting that the conflict in Ethiopia has been ongoing for years, resulting in the deaths of hundreds of thousands. Tensions between the government and the front have worsened, and there are warnings of significant security and economic repercussions due to the recent escalation.
