Reuters reported at least 17 deaths in air attacks northwest of Mekelle, citing a humanitarian bulletin; the victims’ civilian status and responsibility for individual strikes require independent investigation. Adyabo Times urges the international community to press Ethiopia’s government to protect civilians, allow humanitarian access and cooperate with independent investigators. Military suppliers should suspend transfers that risk enabling unlawful attacks, while all armed parties must face accountability for verified abuses. https://adyabo-times.pages.dev/articles/pretoria’s-broken-promise-why-tigray’s-peace-failed-its-people/ https://adyabo-times.pages.dev/articles/pretoria’s-broken-promise-why-tigray’s-peace-failed-its-people/ Mon, 05 Oct 2026 12:00:00 GMT Peace Process The Pretoria Agreement failed to deliver lasting peace because its promises lacked strong enforcement, displaced Tigrayans remained unable to return home, and justice remained incomplete. Tigrayan leaders deserve scrutiny for accepting inadequate safeguards and allowing political divisions to undermine recovery. The African Union must answer for ineffective monitoring, while Western partners should explain why diplomatic and economic cooperation advanced without sufficient accountability. Allegations of deliberate betrayal or favoritism remain unproven; the clearest failure is the continued suffering of civilians. https://adyabo-times.pages.dev/articles/the-price-paid-to-hold-a-country-together/ https://adyabo-times.pages.dev/articles/the-price-paid-to-hold-a-country-together/ Mon, 05 Oct 2026 12:00:00 GMT Current Situation Tigray played a pivotal role in defeating Ethiopia’s dictatorship in 1991 and shaping the federal system that followed. Although the EPRDF’s rule deserves scrutiny, its failures cannot justify collective blame against Tigrayans. The subsequent war inflicted documented mass killings, sexual violence, starvation, and displacement on civilians, creating a profound betrayal of the promise of shared citizenship. Ethiopia’s unity must rest on equal protection, historical truth, and accountability—not on any community’s suffering or silence. https://adyabo-times.pages.dev/articles/renewed-fighting/ https://adyabo-times.pages.dev/articles/renewed-fighting/ Sun, 04 Oct 2026 12:00:00 GMT Current Situation Months of rising tension between Mekelle and Addis Ababa turned into open fighting across Tigray, Afar and Amhara.

Four years on, those questions brought the parties back to conflict. https://adyabo-times.pages.dev/articles/war-2020-2022/ https://adyabo-times.pages.dev/articles/war-2020-2022/ Thu, 01 Oct 2026 12:00:00 GMT History Two years of fighting reshaped Tigray. A short guide to how it began, how it spread, and how it stopped. https://adyabo-times.pages.dev/articles/western-tigray/ https://adyabo-times.pages.dev/articles/western-tigray/ Mon, 28 Sep 2026 12:00:00 GMT Western Tigray Ethinic cleansing happening in western Tigray, Western Tigray has longstanding historical ties to Tigray that predate Ethiopia’s modern federal system. Haile Selassie’s imperial reorganisation placed western territories under Begemder/Gondar, while punitive boundary changes following the 1943 Woyane rebellion detached southern territories from Tigray. These changes challenge claims that the areas have always been Amhara land. During the war beginning in 2020, human rights organisations documented ethnic cleansing, forced displacement and pillage against Tigrayans in Western Tigray. The Pretoria agreement did not settle the territorial question; lasting peace requires recognition of history, accountability and the safe return of displaced communities. https://adyabo-times.pages.dev/articles/tplf-history/ https://adyabo-times.pages.dev/articles/tplf-history/ Thu, 24 Sep 2026 12:00:00 GMT History Founded in 1975, the TPLF went from guerrilla movement to the centre of national power, and then to open conflict with Addis Ababa. https://adyabo-times.pages.dev/articles/adyabo-testimony/ https://adyabo-times.pages.dev/articles/adyabo-testimony/ Sun, 20 Sep 2026 12:00:00 GMT Adyabo We are collecting first-hand accounts of the war years and the present crisis from people in and from Adyabo. https://adyabo-times.pages.dev/articles/editors-note/ https://adyabo-times.pages.dev/articles/editors-note/ Fri, 18 Sep 2026 12:00:00 GMT Opinion Opinion.
