Ethiopia warns of 'destruction' as Tigray rebels launch offensive
President Taye Atske Selassie raised the alarm as Tigray rebel forces launched a fresh military offensive against the government.
Ethiopia's President Taye Atske Selassie has issued a stark warning about what he called "forces of destruction" as Tigray rebels launched a new offensive, raising fresh fears of escalating conflict in the country.
The president's warning signals a significant deterioration in the fragile security situation in the region, where tensions between federal authorities and Tigray forces have periodically flared into open hostility.
The latest offensive threatens to deepen the humanitarian and political crisis that has long burdened the Horn of Africa nation, drawing renewed international concern over stability in one of the continent's most populous countries.
