Foreign Ministry of Eritrea

Force in Play

Severed all diplomatic ties with Ethiopia and asked the UN Security Council to take deterrent measures.

Ethiopian forces and their Tigray Peace Force allies entered Aksum in mid-October and took Bizet and Inticho on October 20, extending federal control across northern Tigray. Federal troops also pulled back from the border towns of Zalambessa and Rama while keeping up drone and artillery strikes on Tigrayan fighters in the central mountains.
