📍Tigray’s President Dr. Debretsion Gebremichael just released an 11-min video message framing the current war as an existential continuation of a "genocidal" project against the region. He lashed out at internal "Bandas" (traitors) and pleaded with Tigrayans to reject local and district divisions.
đź“ŤEthiopian govenment forces report capturing the strategic town of Abi Adi (marked in Red). Meanwhile, Tigrayan forces claim victory over multiple towns along the B30 highway corridor, including May Hanse, Dedebit, Hitsats, Kisad Gaba and May Dmu (marked in blue).
đź“ŤAmhara forces say more than 300 Ethiopian government soldiers and militiamen defected to their side in October, bringing their weapons. Some of them reportedly held junior officer ranks.
đź“Ť PM Abiy Ahmed appointed Lt. Gen. Belay Seyoum (former commander of the ENDF's Northern Command) as Deputy Commissioner General of the Federal Police. His appointment continues a trend of shifting senior military generals into high-profile domestic police and security leadership roles.
đź“Ť Protests erupt in Moyale amid Oromo-Somali tensions. Demonstrators burned tyres in Moyale, southern Ethiopia near the Kenyan border, amid complaints from the Somali community that the government is undermining their administrative rights and dismantling local governance structures. Residents allege authorities are pressuring them to vacate long-standing administrative offices, escalating tensions in the contested area between Oromia and the Somali region.
