Ethiopia’s army chief accuses Eritrea, Sudan and Egypt of supporting Tigray rebels

Ethiopia’s army chief has publicly suggested that neighboring Eritrea, Sudan, and Egypt are providing support to Tigray rebel forces. The accusations come as the rebel troops have captured several strategic towns amid renewed fighting in the northern region of the country.

The allegations from military leadership have drawn swift denials from the accused neighboring nations. This development raises concerns over the potential for the domestic conflict to escalate into a broader regional crisis.
