The Ethiopian government spokesman, Legacy Tolo, said that the army and special forces of the Amhara region were able to break the defenses and armed trenches of the Tigray Liberation Front in the Gashana Arbit area and take them completely.
In a press conference, Tolo said that the region is considered a strategic hub that blocks the way for the Tigray Liberation Front forces from returning to its territory.
He added that the Ethiopian army is still achieving victories on various fronts.
The importance of “Gashana Arbit” comes in terms of the military strategy, as it is located in the Amhara region and links four major cities, namely Waldia, Lalibela, Qaqa and South Gondar, which makes it a pivotal and decisive area in resolving the current battles in the region.
