The Ethiopian parliament on Wednesday lifted the designation of Tigray People's Liberation Front (TPLF) as a terrorist entity, five months after the country signed a peace deal to end war in the northern parts of the country.
The decision by the Federal House of the People’s Representatives allows the movement to return to the formal politics of the country, and supposedly adds to further steps meant to end animosity from a war that had lasted two years.
