A new alliance of armed groups in Tigray has launched a broad campaign of forced recruitment, targeting men and boys between the ages of 15 and 65. Renewed conflict erupted on 23 September between Ethiopia's federal government and the Tigray People's Liberation Front (TPLF), shattering the Pretoria peace agreement signed in November 2022.
Forced Conscription and Shifting Alliances
Witnesses described a broad campaign of forced recruitment in Tigray, targeting men and boys between the ages of 15 and 65. The Eritrean Defence Forces and Amhara militias have switched allegiance and are now fighting in support of the TPLF. These groups committed war crimes and crimes against humanity during the 2020-22 conflict.
Gezu*, 34, who fought with the Tigrayan forces in the 2020-22 war, refused to join the new ranks. He stated, 'I refused to join the war. I responded to them to kill me rather than ever force me back to the horrors of the battlefield.' When no one would join willingly, authorities began rounding up people from the streets.
Siege, Economic Strangulation, and Communication Blackouts
The Tigray region has been under siege for the past week when citizens' bank accounts were abruptly frozen by the federal government. The banks have since reopened with a daily withdrawal limit of 2,000 birr. Negus*, an elderly man in Mekelle, noted that this limit can hardly afford to buy the skyrocketing food prices.
Internet and phone communications were cut off on the orders of the TPLF until this week. Ethiopian Airlines suspended flights to and from the Tigray region on 23 September after Tigrayan forces seized the airport in Mekelle, stranding many people who had been heading for the capital, Addis Ababa.
