Tigray People’s Liberation Front Wont Surrender
“We are not going to surrender, we are not going to sit idly while our people are being killed left and right,” a spokesperson for the Tigray People’s Liberation Front (TPLF)

The federal government has said that the fighting is over – but this is disputed by the TPLF.
