In Ethiopia, the federal government has expressed concern over increasing tensions in the Tigray region as they retreat from the Amhara region. The Amhara rebels, known as Fano, have made significant territorial gains, reclaiming key cities such as Debre Tabor, located approximately 100 kilometers from the regional capital. Recently, drone attacks have targeted these areas multiple times, indicating a resurgence of conflict.

The Amhara Peace and Security Bureau has accused the Amhara militias of receiving intelligence and logistical support from Tigrayan rebels and Eritrean forces, suggesting a coordinated effort between the various rebel factions. This collaboration reflects a complicated interplay of loyalties and enmities in a conflict that has already lasted three years, and it raises concerns about stability in the region.

The Federation's accusations highlight not only the fragile security situation in Ethiopia but also the potential for a deeper escalation of violence. As rebel forces align themselves across historical rivalries, the international community closely monitors these developments, fearing that renewed violence could further destabilize an already volatile region and hamper peace efforts, complicating the humanitarian situation in Tigray and surrounding areas.
