Simply they didn’t wanna fight for Amhara, Abiy Ahmed air force bombed Afar.
They always doubt the strength of TDF, and that is one of the reason that made Abiy to lose this war. Abiy will never learn. He is just strengthening them every heavy War machine are sent to Tigray are either destroyed or captured, NONE of them make it back to Addis Ababa.

Recent reports of Ethiopian war indicate that Tigray forces are advancing on the road to the capital Addis Ababa.
Abiy Ahmed The remnants of his regular army were destroyed in Afar, North Wollo and North Gondar yesterday and today.The last strongholds of Kobo, Addi Arkay and Chew were destroyed
Kobo & AdiArqay fall to TDF This is a major defeat for Ethiopia
These towns are just miles away from two key locations in the west, Debrak & Gondar, where a curfew has been imposed for fear of a Tigrean takeover of the Amhara capital, Gondar, as it has been confirmed in the Raya area of Kobo that all ENDF bases have been destroyed. Heavy military equipment in the hands of the TDF.
The heaviest fighting is reported in Zarima after the TDF broke through the ENDF barracks and the last town of Addi Arkay, TDF is also advancing on the strategic town of Mile,Many bodies were reportedly found floating on the Tekeze River from Humera.
It is feared that Amhara and Fano militias killed Tigrean civilians in retaliation for losses suffered by the Tigray Defense Forces in the town of Kobo in Amhara Region, following days of fighting with the army. Ethiopia and the Amhara and ENDF forces fighting alongside the defeated Oromia Special Forces.
With the victory over Kobo, the Tigray Defense Forces are advancing on Woldiya in the West.
Abiy Ahmed Ali currently has no additional troops left, other than
Addis Ababa presidential guards killed in clasheshttps://ethiopia.bz/
The overwhelming number of Ethiopia POWs in Tigray speaks volumes about the expansionist war & the lack of motivation to fight.
It is possible that these forces believed being Prisoner of War is a better option than getting executed or jailed for disobeying Criminal Abiy Ahmed Ali. https://ethiopia.bz/
The loss of Ethiopian soldiers, has become a daily routine, because they’re not fighting a just war, but an aggression war that was masterminded by dictator Abiy Ahmed Ali. The Ethiopian soldiers being ambushed by TDF guerrillas, has become the norm.
Just in this frame you are looking at about 30 trucks if you take average price of 20000usd x 30 = 600000 which is 30,000,000 birr So you wonder how much money is being burned? How much life being lost? How many schools would have been built? How many homes?https://ethiopia.bz/
The people of Tigray have never labelled any people as enemy. The people of Tigray were never an enemy to the Amhara, they are not today, nor will they ever be an enemy in the future.
Tigray’s President Debretsion Gebremichael addresses Ethiopians.
Dear Ethiopian People,
Serious atrocities have been committed against the Tigrayan people by Ethiopian Defence Force, Eritrean Defence Force, Amhara regional police and militias and by foreign forces. Furthermore, in order to exterminate the people of Tigray; bullets, starvation, horrifying sexual violence and a coordinated looting of property have all been employed for the past eight months.
Despite this, the atrocities that have been committed against the people have not pushed us to resign out of destroyed morale and fear or to submit to these forces. Rather, they have pushed the people, regardless of where they may live, to act as one and do so with extreme resolution to sacrifice and fight against their enemies and as such have begun reinstating their rights. TDF will continue to fight to regain all territories that were seized illegally by the invading forces.
Amongst the many things that have happened for the past eight months, with a complete disregard to the constitution, is that the criminal forces have arrogantly seized Tigrayan territories through force. Despite calls for them to immediately withdraw to their origins, they are refusing, believing in their might, to relinquish their hold and have been in preparation for what would be a catastrophe. Still, we are again calling on them to leave the places they have forcefully occupied. Otherwise, as we have done the past 8 months, we will fight and reinstate our rights.
The people of Tigray have never labelled any people as enemy. The people of Tigray were never an enemy to the Amhara, they are not today, nor will they ever be an enemy in the future. In spite of this, in order for those in power to maintain their power they are leading the Amhara people into grave danger. The people should therefore resist, and say lives should not be lost for the greed of power.
To other Ethiopians: uphold your responsibility to advocate for the perpetrators that committed atrocities during the war on Tigray to be held accountable. Do not enter into another round of destructive war against the people of Tigray, that the regime could not defeat even with the invitation of foreign invading force. We call upon you to say enough and refuse to a part of yet another catastrophe and carnage, and to engage in a befitting struggle that is beneficial for yourselves and your future history.
Thank you

Large number of Oromia Regional State Security Forces are en-route to join ENDF in Afar & Raya front-lines.
Significant number of Oromia and other regional forces are being mobilized towards western Tigray in addition to the invading #Amhara militia and regional police currently occupying the area.https://ethiopia.bz/
Col. Hussein Mohamed, the captured commander of Ethiopia’s 11th infantry division, was remarkably frank.
He said he wanted to commit suicide after being surrounded by Tigrayan fighters but junior officers stopped him. Now thinking about his wife and three young children in Oromia.https://ethiopia.bz/
Ethiopia, Russia Sign Military Cooperation Agreement. The agreement will be focusing on transforming capacity of the national defense force in knowledge, skill and technology spheres.
Russia during USSR did not save Derg 1 of Mengistu Hailemariam before, & would not save Derg 2 of Abiy Ahmed Ali either.https://ethiopia.bz/
Ethiopia government prisoners of war captives in Tigray come in many ranks.
The regime of Abiy Ahmed misguided officers, Colonel Hussein Mohammed and Colonel Desalegn Sahle, are being treated humanly by Tigray Defence Forces(TDF).

The first post-victory address of Dr. Debrestion Gebremichael, President of Tigray
At the moment, it is probably not appropriate to talk about the atrocities again. But since we have paid the price, we shall remember what the inhumane brutes have done. They collectively ventured and tried everything in their power to exterminate the people of Tigray. They have committed unimaginable crimes and we will not forget. We will hold those responsible, all the sources of injustice and brutality, accountable.Those of you who were in the midst of our enemies, those who have suffered at the hand of our enemies, your struggle and perseverance, above all, was the source of our strength. In the end, we are here because of you. Because of you, Tigray prevailed.
It is not just in our history; we have now done the impossible. We are glad and proud that those who wrote history are ours. Time and again, the people of Tigray amaze us; we are in awe. We are lucky and proud that we hail from the people of Tigray. Our history and pride attest that the people of Tigray are principled and that we are ready to fight until the last breath. Over the previous eight months, enduring the inhuman savagery, our people, in cities, rural areas, and the diaspora, fought as one.
We know the savagery and injustice will go past the last eight months. Our enemies have tried to exterminate us in a short period; they have done everything in their power. We must remember the past atrocities, if only not to be beaten and slaughtered again. There are many things that we need to do. From now on, the people of Tigray will not disarm. In addition to the power of arms, we need law, order, politics, and diplomacy. However, as we stress over and over again, we get here because of our force of arms. We won because of our force of arms. We shall continue working on our deficiencies and rely on ourselves. We know the force of arms is not everything. However, we have also witnessed that without the force of arms, we are nothing.
We prevailed because of our people, because of our youth, because we worked together. Had we not done enough from inside and out, no one would have routed the invaders. They came with their families to live on our land. They were telling us that we needed their and Asmara’s permission even to think. They were here to subjugate the people of Tigray. However, the people of Tigray are unique. Let alone these enemies; we have not bowed down to others even more powerful. The people of Tigray have a glorious history.
Those who were around us conspired and did everything to beat us into submission and subjugate us. We shall remember their heinous crimes because we should not let them repeat them. They have to know that there is unfinished business. Because of our struggle, Tigray is out of hell. We will continue with the force of arms along with rule and order. When the latter is not possible, we have to be ready to fight. If we want respect, it has to come from our power, and it is our power that will earn us respect. We have to do what we must.
Operation Ras Alula in Tembien is a unique tale. When we designed it, it was meant to clear those who were there and do what we can by getting closer to you. It was meant to move us closer to our people incrementally. But since the belligerent invaders wanted to finish us off, encircle and decimate us, they brought their whole force. Tigray Defence Forces were nearby, the people of Tigray were nearby. The people set the deadline; they said it should not go past June. Our roadmap was that of the people. We said let’s fulfil the wishes of the people. The Tigray populace said we should put a hold on everything else including family-related priorities, and destroy our enemy before the start of the rainy season in June.
The people of Tigray are awe-inspiring. The people of Tigray were the strategists, the architects, and the owners of the victory without involving any other strategist or researcher. What the Tigray Defense Forces performed is what the people of Tigray have designed and the defense was performed together with the people.
We have reached this point because of the people of Tigray and we will continue working together to accomplish unfulfilled goals. The invaders are full of pretence and are claiming they have declared a ceasefire and vacated Tigray because they wanted the farmers to toil their land. They are full of mockery. Nothing is off limit to them. The truth is, they conducted a bloody war and did everything at their disposal to crush Tigray, and after their defeat, they were confused and disoriented and ran away with their tail between their legs.
This being the truth, they have the audacity to say that they left to enable farmers in Tigray to sow seeds and tend their farms. What we should all understand is, our achievements are evidently clear to everyone including our adversaries. They didn’t have the intention of running away with their tail between their legs, their dream was to crush us and to make us kneel.
We also know the intention of our neighbour Isaias, his intention was to stay in Tigray unimpeded and rule Tigray. Isaias was watching the offensive [Operation Alula Aba Nega] from afar, he preferred to watch from a distance, fearing that his forces would be hit. Then he realized that Tigray will use its might to pursue him and he retreated.
Now they are saying “we have accomplished our mission and we are retreating because we completed our goal”. The truth is they fled when they were defeated by the people of Tigray. They were routed from Tigray and they didn’t leave for the sake of the farmers. They are still making preparations in our vicinity. They are now saying that “we realized we can’t stay any longer in Tigray, and we don’t have public support, but there are things that we can do.” Tigray has won, but If they don’t capitulate and if we don’t fully defeat them, they will never leave us alone.
Tigray has prevailed but we must make her (Tigray) prevail even more. They are saying they will regroup; they will not leave us alone. We must know that there is further preparation all around us. Though our victory is miraculous, huge, unique, unthinkable; we have to know that it is not complete and must complete it. We can’t afford to give them another chance to torture, kill, subjugate and to violate, and rape women. They shouldn’t be given a second opportunity at all. Tigray will not be slaughtered and mistreated again. We will continue to proceed with determination as we have just begun to do so. We have not said we will slaughter or demean other people. We have only demanded our rights to be respected. We want to develop and break the cycle of poverty and they are hindering us from realizing this; we will, therefore, ensure that they will not return.
Our victory is massive and needs to be celebrated as it is an astonishing one. It is astounding to everyone and to be honest it also amazes me. What kind of people do we have? Were we really born out of this nation? We will talk about it when we have time to talk about what we have experienced wherever we went. The people of Tigray are always new to me.
The women, the elderly, the children; wherever we have been, everyone showed us support and it kept us from getting discouraged. History was made wherever we went, Not just for the sake of our commitment or our people but for the sake of the children and those who have entrusted us. An unbelievable history was made which astonished even those of us who are seasoned fighters (tegadelit). Why do these people seem so new to us? We were born and fought in this community, and later we administered it; and yet it feels like we are coming to know the people anew. This is a historic nation that has made history and will continue to do so. Any force determined to hinder and block our journey will not exist.
We will not be humiliated and live with injustice. Those who wronged us will be held accountable. It is not just in words, we have to make sure that they are held accountable. We will not sleep until it is done. This is not about settling scores. If we are to live in peace we have to correct the injustice. We should not let our killers live free.
It was not our wish for the youth to be in this situation, the people of Tigray have sacrificed a lot already. It was not our wish nor intention to drag you into this war. Alas, there was nothing that we could have done. They told us “we will do anything by force” and assume kingship by exterminating us. The situation could have been resolved politically and through dialogue. All we said was ‘let us focus on our development, let us continue what we have started.” We said, “let’s prosper together, earn the respect of others, and share what we have”. That was our focus but they had other plans and wanted to subjugate us. Thus, we must rely on ourselves and our strength. We also know we have to rely on rules and order.
We are not anti-Amhara or anti-Eritrea, we don’t have any problem with any people. All we are saying is let’s live together and respect each other. However, there are few who would not let us live in peace be it in Amhara, Addis Ababa, or Eritrea and we shall continue our struggle with them.
We don’t want to instigate anyone. But for the sake of Tigray, because Tigray has to be peaceful because Tigray has to prosper because the safety and security of Tigray have to be maintained, we will do everything possible and it is only for that reason that we need our force of arms.
Because of our history and heroic acts, because of our principle, in addition to the youth and new generation who have taken up our fathers and forefathers’ mantle, we have accomplished the impossible. We are awestruck by your courage and loyalty. Our hope for this generation was to pursue science and technology, not armed struggle.
Alas, we were forced to go to war. However, we have seen our true character because of the war. What we have created will be of help in other ways. Tigray will change and develop because of you. Unlike what our enemies had for us. We will not go back 100 years, rather we will leapfrog 100 years. Tigrayans will not go backward because our enemies destroyed our houses and factories. Within a short period of time, we will rebuild and transform. We are not made only for battles.
The people have decimated all the invading divisions built over 30/40 years, including soldiers from other countries within seven/eight months of preparation. We did it alone, inside and out. We will win on every front. We did not want the war, but they have started it and we will finish it. We have to know that we have to finish this. We will, with our force of arm and determination, decide our fate. We will do everything in our power.
Again, I would like to say congratulations. I am glad we have met again. We are here because of you. Tigray has prevailed and will continue to reach new heights.

One more reason to know that TDF didn’t destroy the bridge . It was Amhara who did this to slow down TDF and block aid to Tigray.
