This suggests that rather than actually seeking peace, the TPLF is once again pursuing their initial military strategy (from July), attacking Afar with the intention of seeking to capture the Djibouti Addis transport routes.

It is classic TPLF for this new offensive to be launched over Christmas whilst their Western enablers are all on holiday, and international media is running on skeleton crews, and therefore unlikely to report this. @BBCworldservice @AJEnglish @dwnews @AP @France24 @AFP @Reuters
Doing so - at this stage with OLA proxy forces -is however a new twist for the TPLF. Should they make any progress it seems likely that TPLF reinforcements will rejoin the effort.
Surely this ought to be enough to convince the UN, EU and US that their ongoing sympathy and support for TPLF is unwarranted and harmful for peace, stability, and their reputations.
