Eritrea has announced it will sever all diplomatic relations with Ethiopia after Addis Ababa expelled 10 Eritrean diplomats, according to a breaking report by Addis Standard. The move marks a sharp escalation between the two Horn of Africa neighbours, whose relations had already been strained despite the 2018 peace agreement that ended two decades of hostility.
Why now: A sudden full diplomatic break between two neighbouring countries that recently fought a war is a major escalation drawing regional and international attention.
