埃塞俄比亚提格雷地区9月23日爆发新一轮武装冲突，打破了2022年11月达成的普里托利亚和平协议1。提格雷人民解放阵线与埃塞俄比亚联邦政府之间的战斗再次燃起，该地区新的武装联盟正在进行广泛的强制征兵活动1。据报道，征兵对象包括15至65岁的男性和男孩，其中重点针对15至40岁的人群，已有包括15岁男孩在内的青少年被强制征募1。
冲突的爆发给该地区造成了严重的人道主义困境1。埃塞俄比亚航空公司已于9月23日暂停了提格雷地区的航班服务1。当地银行面临冻结，日均取款限额仅为2,000比尔（约9英镑），民众面临严重的资金短缺1。此外，提格雷人民解放阵线下令切断互联网和电话通讯1。这是继2020年至2022年那场导致估计30万至80万平民丧生的冲突之后，该地区再次陷入大规模武装冲突1。
Armed conflict has reignited in Ethiopia's Tigray region, shattering a peace agreement signed in November 2022 1. Fighting broke out on September 23, 2024, between the Tigray People's Liberation Front and the Ethiopian federal government, marking a dramatic resumption of hostilities in an area that had experienced relative calm for nearly two years 1.
The renewed violence has been accompanied by widespread forced recruitment campaigns targeting civilians across a broad age range 1. Armed groups in the region are conscripting males and boys aged 15 to 65, with particular focus on those between 15 and 40 years old 1. The humanitarian crisis has deepened simultaneously, as the Tigray People's Liberation Front has ordered internet and telephone communications to be cut off 1. Banking services have severely contracted, with daily cash withdrawal limits set at 2,000 birr—approximately 9 pounds sterling 1. Ethiopian Airlines suspended all flights to the Tigray region on September 23, further isolating the territory 1.
The return to conflict carries grave implications given the devastating toll of the previous war 1. Earlier fighting between 2020 and 2022 resulted in an estimated 300,000 to 800,000 civilian deaths, according to British government estimates 1.
