KumsaDiriba announcing alliance with TPLF. However no unity of effort or unity of command
They are now discussing political alliance between TPLF and OLA as well as other rebel groups

UK is already talking about ENDF/Eritrea using rape as a weapon. Samantha Powers and Sudan were rejected by Abiy a few days ago. USA/UK/EU are probably looking for regime change. Now the big question is will the west give lethal assistance to the rebels
In other news TPLF are discussing a referendum
Older TPLF elites are probably against secession but Tigray hero Gabratsaadiq appears to be a secessionist

They will eventually make truce.president mustafa seems to be riding with abiy until the wheels fall off.
OLA and TDF cannot form an alliance until their areas of military operation are closer/or border each other, so if tdf makes it to the oromia special zone in wallo/wollo, or somehow cuts through afar to the part of oromia that borders afars, then i dont see how it could work?
Yep they didOLA & TDF seem to have made an alliance.
@Removed tell us what this means? With this alliance couldn't they even take Addis.Yep they did
Ethiopia armed group says it has alliance with Tigray forces
A militant leader in Ethiopia says his group has struck a military alliance with the Tigray forces now pressing toward the capital, as the conflict that erupted in the Tigray region last year spreads into other parts of Africa’s second most populous country.apnews.com
It all looks like 80s Ethiopia's civil war with Abiy being Mengistu 2.0
They will eventually make truce.
Dont you think the real masters will bring them to negotiating table?
Abye is done.I give him 6 months.
Amhara should ditch Abye and accept defeat before their land is ravaged by war and turned into waste.
Amhara should respect and accept.diversity and inclusivity of ethnic groups in Ethiopia.
We are in the information age.Ethiopia will never go back to fuedalism or amhara priviledge era.
They are both operating in wollo zone at the moment and if TDF capture dessie then they two rebels will come in contact that means approaching only some kilmeters towards eachother but the important thing is wether OLA is willing to make a real move or they will just continue their empty bravado as usual, if theyre true about fighting against Abiy then cutting the roads connecting amhara region to addisababa would only be enough to remove abiys regime and that all TDF wants from this ragtag militiapresident mustafa seems to be riding with abiy until the wheels fall off.

Not much has changed since before this announcement. Tigray capabilities are greatly overrated due to rapid turn arounds, they are not capable to take Addis without major support.@Removed tell us what this means? With this alliance couldn't they even take Addis.
We need our borderlands back from Afar and Oromo before thatNot much has changed since before this announcement. Tigray capabilities are greatly overrated due to rapid turn arounds, they are not capable to take Addis without major support.
OLA is rapidly growing and will likey be the critical mass in Ethiopias disintegration. Ethiopias never coming back without a major intervention but without a cold war/War on Terror there just isnt any foreseeable incentive for that for any country.
If Cagjar leaves in the coming months we will likely have an independent Somali Galbeed by Yugoslavia like referendums in a few years for each state in Ethiopia.
Poor abiy is now calling on all civilians to take up arms and fight against TDF, the same adversary that rooted the well equipped ENDF and EDF combined, a pure desperate act showing that the regime's days are numbered
