Explosions were heard overnight in Addis Ababa as fighting between Ethiopia's federal forces and a coalition of armed opposition groups widened across the country's north, with drone strikes reported in the capital hours after a ban on drone-flying was imposed.
Drone Strikes in the Capital
A source linked to the Ethiopian Peoples' Forces Alliance for Survival told Reuters the alliance had carried out several drone strikes in Addis Ababa, including some targeting the military's headquarters. The blasts came hours after the capital instituted a ban on drone-flying in the city and surrounding areas.
The alliance unites seven armed groups, including the Tigray People's Liberation Front and groups from the Amhara, Afar, Somali and Benishangul-Gumuz regions. It says it wants to remove Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed's government.
Fighting Deepens in Tigray
Government forces advanced north into Tigray, reaching within about 40 kilometres of Mekelle, its regional capital. The TPLF had pulled its fighters back to new positions, and some of its leaders had moved out of the city, which was joined by thousands of civilians who fled fearing clashes.
Last week, Tigrayan forces mounted a large offensive, which the TPLF calls a 'defensive war' against federal drone and artillery strikes. Government troops and allied fighters have since launched a counteroffensive.
Afar Front and Regional Risks
Government forces told Reuters they have recaptured the towns of Erebti and Abaala, near the border with Tigray, though the claim remains unconfirmed. The fight to control the towns was ongoing, and escalation in the northern region threatened to drag Ethiopia and Eritrea into a wider war.
More than 80,000 Afar residents are trapped in the area. Ahmed Hussein, Afar's deputy governor, called on Asmara to withdraw from Afar territory and held it responsible for the safety of civilians in areas controlled by opposition groups.
