The fighting marks a serious deterioration in northern Ethiopia, where a devastating conflict ended with a fragile peace agreement only four years ago. Reports indicate that Tigrayan leaders say a new war has begun, while the Ethiopian military says it has pushed back attacks. Independent details about casualties, territorial changes and the scale of the clashes remain limited, making the situation highly fluid. A sustained escalation could threaten civilians, disrupt humanitarian access and destabilize the wider Horn of Africa.
