Tigray Peace Force is a current militant coalition active in northern Ethiopia, drawing attention as regional clashes flare and federal forces push into Mekelle; it forms part of the broader conflict involving rival regional actors and international actors.
A coalition including the TPLF, Amhara Fano and OLA has declared the Alliance for Survival to remove Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed and establish a transitional government. Fighting is intensifying across Tigray, Amhara and Oromia as both sides mobilize and regional powers weigh in. Flights to Tigray have been canceled as Mekelle’s airport is seized, and tensions with Eritrea and Sudan are rising.
Fighting in northern Ethiopia has intensified as federal forces push into Tigray, while opposition groups allied with the TPLF strike Addis Ababa with reported drone activity. Civilians flee and aid access tightens amid regional tensions and accusations of external involvement.
The Ethiopian government has regained control of Mekelle’s Alula Aba Nega Airport as fighting expands in the north. Rebels have abandoned parts of the city amid a broader push by federal forces toward Mekelle, raising fears of a wider regional confrontation.
