Ethiopian Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed announced a humanitarian cease-fire five weeks ago, but it is already beginning to fray. In the northern region of Amhara, fighting had subsided. The hills of Amhara have been the scene of fighting between federal government forces, the Tigray People's Liberation Front (TPLF) and militia groups for months. Seid said he hopes conflict will never return to his home. However, a spokesperson for the local government said the presence of the TPLF in Amhara has emboldened other militant groups.
