Etiópia em estado de emergência com rebeldes do Tigray a avançarem para a capital
November 3, 2021 - O governo da Etiópia declarou o estado de emergência no país depois de as forças rebeldes do Tigray ocuparem duas cidades estratégicas num aparente avanço para a capital, Addis Abeba.
The state of emergency was imposed Tuesday in response to the capture of Dessie and Kombolcha, both of which are on a main route into the capital.
The United Nations expressed extreme concern at the latest events, warning that “the stability of Ethiopia and the wider region is at stake” and again calling for an immediate ceasefire.
Ethiopia’s prime minister this week called upon all citizens to combat the approaching Tigray forces.
