Drones Hit Addis Ababa as Ethiopia Cuts Ties with Eritrea

Original: Drones Strike Ethiopia’s Capital as Country Severs Ties with Eritrea

Drone strikes hit Ethiopia's capital, Addis Ababa, just as the government announced it is severing diplomatic relations with Eritrea. The strikes mark a serious escalation between the two neighbors, who had allied during Ethiopia's Tigray war but have grown sharply apart. The timing suggests a direct link between the breaking of ties and the attack, raising fears of wider conflict in the Horn of Africa.

Why now: A sudden military attack on a capital coinciding with a diplomatic rupture is major breaking news.
