Renewed fighting has erupted in western Tigray near the town of Sheraro, as Ethiopian government forces and the Tigray People's Liberation Front (TPLF) trade accusations over the responsibility for the violence. The clashes represent a significant escalation in the region, marking one of the most serious challenges to the stability of the fragile 2022 Pretoria peace agreement.

The outbreak of hostilities threatens the ceasefire that has been in place since the cessation of the two-year conflict. Observers view these developments as a critical test for the ongoing peace process, as both sides continue to attribute the renewed military activity to the other.
