On the eve of International Peace Day, an Ethiopian rebel leader announced an alliance of seven armed groups with the stated objective of toppling Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed's ruling party and establishing a transitional government. The alliance consists of former enemies during the 2020 civil war that killed 600,000 people, and other armed groups from across the country, all fighting their own battles against federal troops. With the war in Sudan across the border, and several third parties like Eritrea siding with involved parties, there are fears of isolated armed conflicts in Ethiopia spilling over into a regional war.
