Fighting in Ethiopia has expanded beyond the northern region of Tigray, where a major conflict previously centred, according to an analysis mapping the spread of the violence.
The widening conflict is described as being driven by a combination of long-standing rivalries, disputes over territory, and the formation of new alliances among different actors in Ethiopia's north.
The analysis does not specify in the available excerpt which particular groups or regions beyond Tigray are now involved, nor the current military balance on the ground. What is indicated is that the dynamics driving the conflict have grown more complex as it has spread.
Ethiopia's north has experienced significant instability in recent years, with the Tigray conflict drawing international attention over its humanitarian toll. The latest developments suggest that containing the fighting to a single region is proving difficult as competing local and regional interests become entangled.
