On Friday, Ethiopian Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed announced the establishment of an interim administration for the northern Tigray region. The federal caretaker administration is intended to govern Tigray for six months with the goals of restoring political stability and paving the way for free and transparent elections.
The announcement comes as the northern region has been controlled by rebels who have recently clashed with federal forces. Specifically, the Tigray People’s Liberation Front (TPLF) launched a major offensive against federal positions in the weeks leading up to the decision.
