Abiy's version of events

Amhara Farmers militia

And he is left with Amharas who are not in a position to reassert their hegemony. More seriously, Amhara parties like NAMA who in reality enjoy more support than Amhara PP sees him as a threat. In short, it is a big mess. By the way, there is an active war in Western Oromia where a large section of the Ethiopian army had to vacate. Oromo are kicking out Amhara 'settlers'. The very Amhara they support his attack on Tigray accused Abiy of being an Oromo extremist when it comes to Western Oromia.

He was the negotiated pick when the IC pushed out TPLF. There was an understanding that he is a transitional leader, but the pastor took on another role. The IC wanted a peaceful settlement and a transition to true multiparty democracy. If things get out of hand, contrary to some might say, it is he that will get the blame. Abiy has to calm nervous Western diplomats who consider Ethiopia as an anchor in the chaotic Horn.

Galbeedi, The only images we are getting from Amhara extremists. The reality is no one knows what's going on or who has the upper hand. The only thing we can be sure of this conflict will be protracted one contrary to what Abiy is saying.

Mass killings are being reported. It's not clear by who.

Tigray folks across Ethiopia are being arrested and imprisoned.

Apparently, Eritrea has joined the war, turning the conflict into regional war. Let's see how Sudan and Egypt react.

It is beginning to look like he really does not have the entire support of the military. He is heavily relying on Amhara Liyo Police and militias. It also looks likes Afwerki might have played Abiy.

Azeris captured the second-largest city in Nagorno-Karabakh, and are at the gate of the regional capital. The Russians decide not to get involved as long as Armenia proper is not threatened. Armenian president says he signed a painful deal with Moscow and Baku meaning they are giving up all Azeri territories including the majority Armenian Nagorno-Karabakh

Any thinking Somali wouldn't miss TPLF, that said Amhara are not any better. Contributing to the revival of their hegemony is suicide. Besides, it is better not to intervene when your enemy is blowing each other to bits.

Abiy reshuffled the entire security sector,, from the army, federal, and to intelligence. All the new appointees are of Amhara extraction.
