Asmara — Ethiopian soldiers abandoning the TPLF regime who recently arrived here said that directives have been given to the TPLF regime's Army to prepare for war.
They also explained that the acute sufferings and oppression committed by the regime against the Army is gaining momentum and that those fleeing to their respective villages in opposition of the TPLF's racist and war-mongering policies are being rounded up.
The defecting soldiers are Tesfai Gerezghier from the Tigray ethnic group, Teages Esayas Mamo from the Walaita ethnic group, and Mamush Teklewold Tufa from the Oromo ethnic group.
