. @AFP report on escalating effort to remove TPLF forces from occupied parts of Amhara initially.

Given that these invading forces have been committing multiple war crimes one might think it would not be unreasonable to expect IC spokespersons to call on TPLF to withdraw.

Dear: @PMEthiopia and #ENDF.

Now that the international media are showing signs of reducing their partiality in favour of the TPLF, it is unfortunate that news of this operation is being reported via the false statements of the enemy.

It is fortunate that many of the media now know not to believe statements from @reda_getachew.

But it would benefit the truth greatly if news of the progress and operations underway in this law and order operation originated from official sources.

There are many other media outlets, and enemies of Ethiopia who will gladly take @reda_getachew at his word, notwithstanding his historic unreliability, and occasional bouts of madness.

The usual practice for these things is a daily choreographed briefing. There is no expectation that you will answer all questions, nor reveal military secrecy.

Just some facts, and maps. Then the world can watch on, as can those in Tigray with satellite TV/internet.

And that could even help bring about a earlier resolution to this by way of a surrender.
