Gov’t warns to target military sources of TPLF

ADDIS ABABA: The Ethiopian government on Friday warned that it will target military forces of the rebel Tigray People’s Liberation Front (TPLF).

The statement was made by the Ethiopian Government Communications Service, saying that even though the federal government “has kept the door open for peace until now, the TPLF clique have continued their attacks.”

“Therefore, while the readiness of the Federal Government to talk unconditionally is preserved, it will take action targeting the military forces that are the source of the anti-peace sentiment of the TPLF,” the statement read.
