Mekelle: 16 April 2024 (Tigray Herald)
TDF have Fully controlled the city of Alamata in southern Tigray
So far, Raya Alamata have fallen under TDF forces. Government forces is in no where to be seen in the area sources have confirmed!!
President of Intrim givernment of Tigray Getachew reda speaks out regarding this development and says Nor is this a conflict between Tigray & Amhara Administrations.
Developments in Southern Tigray-& other occupied territories of Tigray-are not about a conflict between the Federal Government &the interim Administration/or TPLF. Nor is this a conflict between Tigray & Amhara Administrations. This is the work of diehard enemies of the Pretoria agreement trying to take advantage
of real or perceived differences to derail the rather cordial engagement both parties to the Pretoria agreement are making round the clock to make the Agreement work.
Our two sides are now convening in Addis to address challenges & build on commonalities. It’s not entirely implausible to believe that this will indeed yield results- & positive ones. Despite battlecries from the usual anti-Pretoria quarters from near or afar to resort to Saber-rattling as their preferred path, peace/talking is the only game in town!
Development in Southern Tigray is one step forward in terms of implementing the Pretoria Agreement. Much more remains to be done to reinstate the rightful Tigray administration in Western Tigray, territories occupied by #Eritrea and to return displaced civilians to their homes.
