Ethiopian Opposition Alliance Forms to Oust Government

Seven Ethiopian armed groups have formed a new coalition, the 'Alliance for the Existence of the Ethiopian Revolutionary Forces' (also referred to as 'Alliance for Survival'), with the stated aim of overthrowing the federal government and establishing a transitional administration. This development, confirmed by multiple sources including a TPLF official, represents a significant consolidation of opposition forces, including the TPLF, OLA, and Fano. The alliance's operational capacity, internal cohesion given historical rivalries, and immediate actions remain unclear.
