This event marks an escalation in the violent conflict between Ethiopia\u2019s federal government and the government of the Tigray region, which has seemingly become an international armed conflict.<\/p>\n<p>According to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.aljazeera.com\/news\/2020\/11\/15\/rockets-fired-from-ethiopias-tigray-region-hit-eritrean-capital\">Al Jazeera<\/a>, at least three rockets were fired at Asmara on the evening of November 14, with at least two hitting Asmara\u2019s airport. Residents of Asmara reported hearing at least four explosions in total.<\/p>\n<p><u>Al Jazeera<\/u> reports that the president of the Tigray region, Debretsion Gebremichael, said his forces have been fighting Eritrean forces \u201con several fronts\u201d in the days following the missile strike. He did not specify where, but he did say Eritrean forces, specifically \u201c16 divisions\u201d of troops, were deployed.<\/p>\n<p>In the days following this escalation, Ethiopian troops took the towns of Axum and Adwa, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/article\/us-ethiopia-conflict\/ethiopias-tigray-rebels-fire-rockets-into-city-no-casualties-idUSKBN2800FB\">Reuters<\/a> reports, citing a government statement. As of November 19, Ethiopian troops are advancing toward Adigrat, a town north of Mekelle, which is the regional capital of Tigray and home to about half a million people.<\/p>\n<p>The conflict in Ethiopia is between the regional Tigray government and the country\u2019s Nobel Peace Prize-winning prime minister whose reforms marginalized Tigrayan\u2019 power. According to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.voanews.com\/africa\/rockets-hit-eritreas-capital-asmara\">Voice of America<\/a>, hundreds have been killed since Ethiopian Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed sent the national defense force into Tigray on November 4. The prime minister has accused the Tigray People\u2019s Liberation Front of treason and terrorism and has said his military campaign will restore order, reports <a href=\"https:\/\/www.aljazeera.com\/news\/2020\/11\/15\/rockets-fired-from-ethiopias-tigray-region-hit-eritrean-capital\">Al Jazeera<\/a>. According to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.com\/news\/world-africa-54942546\">BBC News<\/a>, there have been reports of possible cooperation between Ethiopia\u2019s federal government and the government of Eritrea, but Prime Minister Abiy appeared to deny this claim. He explained that Ethiopia was \u201cmore than capable of attaining the objectives of the operation by itself.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>According to the Associated Press, these clashes could destabilize the Horn of Africa, fracture a key United States security ally, and could result in thousands of refugees being forced to flee to Sudan. Due to the conflict\u2019s potential international consequences, the U.S. strongly condemned the Tigray region\u2019s \u201cunjustifiable attacks against Eritrea &#8230; and its efforts to internationalize the conflict,\u201d reports the Associated Press.<\/p>\n<p>There have been reports of a burgeoning humanitarian crisis in the region, thanks in large part to the escalation of this conflict. According to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/article\/us-ethiopia-conflict\/ethiopias-tigray-rebels-fire-rockets-into-city-no-casualties-idUSKBN2800FB\">Reuters<\/a>, the United Nations has helped set up the Um Rakuba settlement in Sudan, where aid workers are setting up a camp in the scrubland for 10,000 refugees, most of whom are Tigrayan. Many aid agencies fear a humanitarian emergency may develop in Tigray, where, prior to the conflict, hundreds of thousands of people have depended on relief aid . The conflict is forcing refugees \u00a0to use overcrowded boats to cross a river to Sudan, overwhelming aid groups on both sides. Axel Bisschop of the United Nations Human Rights Council explained that the UN had planned for 20,000 refugees to enter Sudan, but that \u201cthe new planning figure is around 200,000.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In regards to the humanitarian concerns, UNICEF\u2019s representative, Abdullah Fadil, is worried about the impact this conflict could have on Sudan and other countries, reports <u>Reuters<\/u>. Sudan is already hosting over one million refugees from other African wars, and this conflict is putting a strain on their resources. In a briefing, Fadil said, \u201cOur serious concern is if we do not act quickly with the resources needed&#8230;this could unravel not only Ethiopia but also Sudan.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><em><a href=\"https:\/\/commons.wikimedia.org\/wiki\/File:Abiy_Ahmed_-_2019.jpg\" data-rel=\"lightbox-image-0\" data-rl_title=\"\" data-rl_caption=\"\" title=\"\">Image<\/a> courtesy of The Kremlin, Moscow (Wikimedia Commons)<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The leader of Ethiopia\u2019s Tigray region confirmed the firing of missiles at Eritrea\u2019s capital city of Asmara, reports the Associated Press.
