Eritrea cuts ties with Ethiopia, stoking war fears in Horn of Africa
Original: Growing fear of war in the Horn of Africa after Eritrea cuts ties with Ethiopia
Eritrea has severed diplomatic ties with Ethiopia, triggering alarm across the Horn of Africa that the two former allies could slide back into armed conflict. Observers fear the rupture could destabilise a region already strained by the aftermath of Ethiopia's war in Tigray and unresolved disputes over Red Sea access. Regional governments and international partners are watching closely for signs of escalation.
Why now: The breakdown in relations between two countries that fought a devastating war raises immediate fears of renewed conflict in an already volatile region.
