One of the biggest military risks for ENDF is exhaustion and overstretch. Sustained TPLF–Fano pressure around #Kobo, #Sekota and #Lalibela, plus new fronts elsewhere, could disperse forces, strain logistics, threaten key corridors and make coordinated defence harder.

#TPLF–Fano are applying multi-axis pressure across Sekota (captured), North #Wollo, #Lalibela, Afar & Wolkayt, stretching ENDF across fronts. ENDF is responding with drones, defensive concentrations and counterattacks, seeking to contain the offensive and prevent a breakthrough.

The 11 rock-hewn churches of Lalibela, Ethiopia — carved from ONE rock, 800 years ago.
This is Biete Gabriel-Rufael, connected by a stone bridge over a deep ravine.
Still active, still sacred. UNESCO World Heritage.
