The Ethiopian national army has reportedly launched heavy air and ground offensives against positions of Tigray forces in the Amhara region of northern Ethiopia.
Reuters quoted Tigray People's Liberation Front (TPLF) spokesman Getachew Reda and a diplomatic source saying that the rebels had been under airstrikes and heavy artillery fire in the past few days.
