Ethiopian forces have reportedly regained control of the key town of Sekota in a shifting frontline, as clashes between government troops and Tigrayan fighters intensify beyond their regional stronghold. The development signals an escalation in the conflict, with combat now spreading into areas previously considered outside the immediate zone of heavy fighting. Military analysts warn that the push for Sekota could mark a broader strategic maneuver, potentially altering the balance of power in the region. The recapture comes amid growing concerns over civilian casualties and displacement as the violence expands.
