The Tigray Peace Force militia group, which consists of fighters from Tigray who have allied themselves with the Ethiopian government, said on Monday that it had captured Alamata in southern Tigray after days of heavy fighting.
The announcement was made on social media platforms. The information has been partially confirmed by the independent conflict monitor ACLED.
Reports of heavy fighting between government forces and fighters seeking independence for the region have been ongoing for several days and on several fronts.
