Rebels from the Tigray People's Liberation Front (TPLF) have taken control of regional airports in northern Ethiopia and clashed with government troops in neighboring Afar and Amhara regions, reigniting fears of renewed conflict in the war-torn country.
Rebels Take Control of Key Airports
TPLF rebels armed with light weapons reportedly seized Mekelle Airport in Tigray's capital without resistance, according to local witnesses. The group also appears to have taken control of Axum and Shire airports, prompting Ethiopian Airlines to cancel all services at those locations due to the volatile security situation.
This rapid takeover of government-controlled airfields marks a significant escalation in the region's instability. The airports, normally under the authority of Ethiopian government forces, were captured with minimal opposition, raising concerns about the rebels' operational capacity and strategic reach across northern Ethiopia.
Renewed Fighting Sparks Regional Tensions
The TPLF has entered into an 'Alliance for Survival' with other groups aimed at removing Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed and his government from power. This political maneuvering comes alongside military offensives in Afar and Amhara regions, where clashes with government forces have resumed after months of relative calm following the Pretoria Peace Agreement.
Ethiopia has accused the TPLF of allying with neighboring Eritrea and other armed groups, further complicating the security landscape. The Tigray government responded by stating that its army has been instructed to counter what it described as a 'genocidal invasion' and has entered into a defensive battle against the rebels.
Humanitarian Crisis Deepens in War-Ravaged Region
The African Union estimates that approximately 600,000 people were killed during the 2020-2022 civil war between the TPLF and Ethiopian forces, with more than 1 million people still displaced from the conflict. The resumption of hostilities threatens to exacerbate an already dire humanitarian situation in the region.
The TPLF, which ruled Ethiopia from 1991 until 2018 when Abiy Ahmed's election sparked the current crisis, has been a central player in the country's turbulent political history. Despite the Pretoria Peace Agreement bringing an end to the formal conflict, peace has remained elusive as both sides continue to engage in sporadic violence.
