Ethiopia's Federal Army and TPLF Clash, Breaking 2022 Tigray Peace Deal

Artillery and drone strikes hit western Tigray on August 2 — the first major breach of the 2022 Pretoria ceasefire between Ethiopia's federal army and TPLF rebels. Hundreds fled to Sudan. The earlier war killed an estimated 600,000. A TPLF member reported "de-escalation" by August 3. Whether that holds may determine if the peace deal survives.
