Ethiopian armed alliance threatens new civil war against Abiy government

A coalition of seven armed groups, led by the Tigray Liberation Front, has formed the Alliance for Survival to overthrow Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed's government. This marks a significant escalation from the 2020-2022 Tigray conflict, potentially reigniting large-scale civil war. The alliance's military capability and coordination remain uncertain, but the threat is credible given the TPLF's prior insurgency.
