The TPLF has vowed to fight on
Tigray #refugees who fled the conflict in Ethiopia’s Tigray region arrive on the banks of the Tekeze river in Hamdayet on the Sudan-Ethiopia border on Dec 1. The fighting is estimated to have killed thousands, sent ~45,000 refugees into Sudan and displaced more within Tigray
Abiy declared victory on Saturday night, saying that military operations in Tigray were “completed” — but the TPLF has vowed to fight on.
Senior Tigrayan official Wondimu Asamnew claimed Wednesday that federal forces were “encountering low-scale warfare all over Tigray” and that pro-TPLF fighters would launch a “full-scale offensive… in the near future”.
Wondimu also said in a statement that the TPLF had carried out a “strategic retreat” without sustaining heavy losses.
