Ethiopia's army says it has repelled TPLF attacks in first comment on fresh Tigray fighting

Ethiopia's army claims to have repelled attacks from Tigrayan forces and their allies in northern Ethiopia, particularly in Amhara near the Tigray border, inflicting heavy casualties and seizing weapons. The TPLF, which dominates Tigray, seized control of three airports on Wednesday, without commenting on the military's claims. Unconfirmed reports suggest TPLF forces launched heavy artillery attacks in Afar and Amhara regions, including an attempt to take control of the town of Yallo near Tigray.
