Seven Ethiopian armed groups form coalition to oust PM Abiy

Seven Ethiopian militias, led by the TPLF, have united to overthrow Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed, accusing him of provoking war and genocide. This marks a significant escalation in Ethiopia's internal conflict, potentially broadening the civil war beyond Tigray. The coalition's military capacity and coordination remain uncertain, but the move threatens to destabilize the Horn of Africa further.

Ethiopian Opposition Alliance Forms to Oust Government

Seven Ethiopian armed groups have formed a new coalition, the 'Alliance for the Existence of the Ethiopian Revolutionary Forces' (also referred to as 'Alliance for Survival'), with the stated aim of overthrowing the federal government and establishing a transitional administration. This development, confirmed by multiple sources including a TPLF official, represents a significant consolidation of opposition forces, including the TPLF, OLA, and Fano. The alliance's operational capacity, internal cohesion given historical rivalries, and immediate actions remain unclear.
