The US condemned the offensive by Tigray rebels in Ethiopia and warned of possible new sanctions

The United States government has formally condemned the large-scale offensive launched by the Tigray People's Liberation Front (TPLF) in northern Ethiopia. Washington warned that it may impose targeted sanctions against rebel leadership in response to the recent escalation of hostilities in the region.

This diplomatic warning follows a period of intensifying conflict between the TPLF and Ethiopian forces. The potential for new sanctions underscores the ongoing international concern regarding the stability of the region and the humanitarian impact of the military expansion.
