Just four years after the historic Pretoria Agreement brought a temporary halt to bloodshed, northern Ethiopia is once again sliding into a devastating cycle of conflict. Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed’s government faces intensifying pressure as fighting between federal forces and the TPLF expands across Tigray, Amhara, and Afar, displacing over 150,000 people and triggering international alarm. Coming hot on the heels of a controversial U.S. policy shift that allowed critical sanctions to expire, the renewed hostilities have drawn sharp criticism from lawmakers warning of lost accountability. With Washington urging diplomatic intervention, the European Union rushing emergency aid, and the United Nations reporting severe blockages on the ground, the humanitarian crisis deepens by the day. As regional tensions stretch across the Horn of Africa, global powers are issuing a unified warning to save the 2022 peace process before it completely unravels. Alyson Le Grange brings you more on this story on Firstpost Africa.
