Seven Ethiopian armed groups announce an alliance

Seven Ethiopian armed groups announced September 20 that they had formed an alliance seeking to remove the federal government and establish a transitional administration. Members include the Tigray People’s Liberation Front, the Amhara Fano National Movement and the Oromo Liberation Army, alongside four smaller groups. The Ethiopian government had not publicly responded in the retrieved reporting. The announcement signals political coordination among groups with previously conflicting interests, but does not itself establish joint military operations or changed territorial control.
