Ethiopia’s federal government announced a ceasefire in Tigray on Friday. The Ethiopian National Defense Force and the Provisional Tigray Administration left Tigray’s capital as part of the ceasefire, pausing eight months of war.
The Tigray Defense Force, a guerrilla warfare group, has not agreed to the government’s ceasefire. Rosemary DiCarlo, the UN Under-Secretary-General for Political and Peacebuilding Affairs said “we urge the TDF to endorse the ceasefire immediately and completely.”
The government cited humanitarian concerns as the driver behind the ceasefire. According to DiCarlo, “civilians have paid the heaviest price” for Tigray’s armed conflict. The UN estimates that the war has displaced 1.7 million persons. In addition, it estimates that 400,000 persons live in famine and 1.8 million more “are on the brink of famine” due to the conflict.
1 are repeating their 1985 style deceit once more. In 1985, Sir Bob Geldof brought together British and Irish musicians to help famine victims in Ethiopia, mainly in Tigray and Wollo Regions. Hopefully, everyone remembers the song “Do they know it’s Christmas.” The charity personally distributed the food aid in the affected regions. However, the TPLF approached Bob Geldof and moaned. The people in the territory it controlled could not get the help. The Charity gave them £25,000,000. The TPLF claimed the food would be bought from the Sudan and transported into Tigray to feed the starving. However, as per Gebremedhin Araya, one of the defected rebel leaders of the time, no penny was delivered to the starving people of Tigray. Some were spent to purchase weapons while rest were used to enrich themselves by investing it in “The Endowment Fund for the Rehabilitation of Tigray (EFFORT), private property of the TPLF.

Khartoum,
Sudan on Sunday urged all conflicting parties in Ethiopia s Tigray region to stop fighting and sit at the negotiating table.
A high-level meeting held in Sudan s capital Khartoum expressed deep concern that the developments in Ethiopia may lead to negative impact on the regional stability, particularly the neighbouring countries, Sudan s Sovereign Council said in a statement.
The future of Ethiopia is determined by Ethiopians and judging by neighbouring relations and interests, Sudan will spare no effort to work with all the parties in Ethiopia to reach a consensus that enhances the unity of Ethiopia, the statement added.
