Ethiopia Truce Ends With New Fighting Between Govt, Tigray Forces
On August 25, 2022, rebels in the Tigray region of Ethiopia have accused the central government in Addis Ababa, and militias aligned with them, of launching what they call a "large-scale offensive". The government in Addis Ababa said Tigrayan rebels had initiated an offensive. In a statement, the Government Communications Service said the Tigrayan rebels "launched an attack", giving the same time as the insurgents had earlier given for the onset of fresh fighting.
The fresh offensive comes five months after the TPLF and the Ethiopian government reached a truce after more than a year of a brutal war that began in November 2020.
