Ethiopian Peoples’ Forces Alliance for Survival

The Ethiopian Peoples’ Forces Alliance for Survival is a newly formed coalition of seven Ethiopian armed groups. Announced recently, this alliance brings together movements with diverse histories and objectives, united by rising tensions with Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed's government. The primary aim of this alliance is to collectively challenge and ultimately overthrow the current administration. The formation is particularly newsworthy due to growing fears of an expanding conflict within Ethiopia. These former adversaries have pledged to set aside their differences to work towards establishing an inclusive transitional government. The alliance's significance lies in its potential to consolidate opposition forces and escalate the ongoing internal conflicts, posing a substantial challenge to the stability of the Ethiopian government.
