Watch this video as Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed secures a major domestic triumph, with federal troops marching into Mekelle and reclaiming the Tigrayan capital. Yet, even as Addis Ababa celebrates this military breakthrough, a profound geopolitical storm is brewing across the Horn of Africa. On the Egyptian coast, Egypt, Eritrea, Sudan, and Somalia have united to sign the Alamein Declaration, forging a formidable regional bloc against Ethiopia’s vital interests in transboundary water rights and Red Sea access. Meanwhile, diplomatic relations with Asmara have completely collapsed following mutual embassy closures, and regional powers continue to lock horns over ongoing conflicts. Josh Barnes analyses how Prime Minister Abiy’s domestic victory has triggered unprecedented regional isolation on Firstpost Africa.
