Fighting between the Ethiopian government and Tigray rebels has intensified in recent days, sparking serious concerns about a possible escalation into a major civil war.

This conflict, which had already caused more than 600,000 deaths between 2000 and 2022, is rooted in deep ethno-political rivalries and persistent internal tensions, according to RFI.

Beyond internal causes, this crisis takes place within a complex regional context, increasing the risks of instability in the area.
