Ethiopian Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed said his soldiers would "destroy" rebels from the northern Tigray region, in the latest instalment of footage which state media said shows him at the war front.
His move came after the TPLF reported major territorial gains, claiming this week to have seized a town just 220 kilometres from the capital Addis Ababa. The World Food Programme tweeted that 79 trucks carrying food and other lifesaving humanitarian supplies had arrived in Mekelle, the capital of the Tigray region this week.Independent media have largely been denied access to war-affected regions in recent weeks.
