The Tigray People\u2019s Liberation Front (TPLF) has deployed well armed troops near Raya -Kobo for another attack against the Amhara region.<\/b><\/p>\n
Information reaching Zegabi.com said the Tigray force in the Raya front is estimated to have a strength of 20,000 troops and took control of surrounding mountainous areas.<\/p>\n
Witnesses said the National Defense Force makes no effort to stop the advancing TPLF forces claiming it did not receive orders from Addis Ababa.<\/p>\n
TPLF fighters who were loaded on three trucks, however, were killed in an airstrike as they were nearing Kobo.<\/p>\n
Currently, the TPLF forces are nearly in full control of Raya- Alamata as the government forces remain in defensive position for undisclosed reasons.<\/p>\n
The Tigray forces have built up a long fortification in Alamata and killed several civilians targeting ethnic Amhara people. They are reportedly advancing to Lailibela too.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, Colonel Demeke Zewdu, Wolkait administration military wing head dismissed rumor that Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed\u2019s government has ordered the withdrawal of forces from Wolkait, a part of Gonder which the TPLF annexed to Tigray following the military takeover of power in 1991.<\/p>\n
However, the TPLF still has a military presence in parts of the Northern Gonder including Adi Arkay town and surrounding areas.<\/p>\n
According to confirmed local sources, places like Abaala in Afar region and Humera are once again under attack by TPLF forces by heavy artillery.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
