On Nov. 4, the Ethiopian government launched a law enforcement operation in its restive northernmost Tigray region after forces of the now outlawed Tigray People’s Liberation Front (TPLF) attacked the northern command of the Ethiopian army, killing soldiers and looting military hardware.
Thousands of people are believed to have been displaced, some of them into Sudan, according to UN estimates.
On Nov. 28, Abiy declared an end to the military operation following the fall of the city of Mekele, the capital of Tigray.
