ADDIS ABABA (The Thursday Times) — Ethiopia ke fauji sarbarah ne hafte ko hamsaya mulk Eritrea par ilzaam lagaya ke woh wafaqi fauj ke khilaf Tigrayan forces ki ek nayi karrawai ki qiyadat kar raha hai, aur kaha ke hathiyar Misr ne faraham kiye, jabke Ethiopia ki do sarhadon par jari larai se hazaron afraad ghar chhorne par majboor ho gaye hain.
Ethiopian National Defense Forces ke Chief of General Staff Field Marshal Birhanu Jula ne ek press conference mein kaha: "Is karrawai ki qiyadat Eritrea ne ki, jabke logistic madad aur askari saaman Misr ne faraham kiya. Taham hamari forces ne yeh hamla paspa kar diya."
Jula ke mutabiq Tigray People's Liberation Front (TPLF) ne Amhara aur Afar ke ilaqon mein fauji thikanon par hamlon ka chautha daur shuru kiya tha. Un ka kehna tha ke paspa hone ke baad us ke commander Eritrea faraar ho gaye aur Adi Keyh, Mendefera aur darul-hukoomat Asmara mein panah liye hue hain.
Eritrea aur Misr ki jaanib se fauri taur par koi radd-e-amal nahin aaya. Dono mumalik Ethiopia ke maazi ke mudakhalat ke ilzamaat mustarad kar chuke hain, aur fauji sarbarah ke daawon ki azadana tasdeeq nahin ho saki.
'Ethiopia ko tabah karne ke liye'
Jula ne mazeed ilzaam lagaya ke Asmara ne TPLF, Amhara mein sargaram Fano militia, Oromo Liberation Front, Sudan aur Misr par mushtamil ek ittehad tashkeel diya. Unhon ne kaha: "Hatmi maqsad in quwwaton ko muttahid kar ke Ethiopia ko tabah karna aur us ki hukoomat ka takhta ulatna tha." Un ka kehna tha ke Eritrea larai ko Ethiopia ki sarzameen par rakhna chahta hai taake apni sarzameen ko is se bacha sake.
Unhon ne Tigray ke hukkam par naujawanon ko zabardasti bharti karne ka ilzaam bhi lagaya aur kaha ke taqreeban 8 lakh naujawan jabri bharti se bachne ke liye ilaqa chhor chuke hain.
Sudan ki fauj ne, jo neem-fauji Rapid Support Forces ke khilaf apni jang lar rahi hai, is maah ke aaghaz mein Ethiopia par ilzaam lagaya tha ke woh is group ko apni sarzameen se drone urane ki ijazat de raha hai. Sudani fauj ne jume ko Maghribi Kordofan ke ek aham qasbe par qabza kiya.
Badme ke qareeb gola-bari
Ethiopia aur Eritrea 2020 se 2022 tak Tigray jang mein ek saath lare the, lekin ek doosre ke mussalah mukhalifeen ki pusht-panahi ke ilzamaat aur Bahr-e-Ahmar tak rasai ki Ethiopia ki koshish par ta'alluqaat bigar chuke hain. Eritrea is koshish ko apni khudmukhtari ke liye khatra qarar deta hai, jabke Addis Ababa taqat ke zariye samandar tak rasai hasil karne ke iraade ki tardeed karta hai.
Intelligence jaaizon se waqif sifaratkaron ne hafte ko bataya ke mutanaza sarhadi qasbe Badme ke qareeb kai dinon se jharpon mein shiddat aayi hai, jin mein Ethiopia ki jaanib se drone hamle aur Eritrea ki jaanib se bhaari topkhane ka istemal kiya gaya. Rehaishiyon ne raat ko dhamakon, band dukanon aur khandanon ki naql-e-makani ki itla di.
Ek sifaratkar ne kaha: "Aalmi biradari ki sab se bari mushtarka tashweesh yeh hai ke yeh soorat-e-haal ek bharpoor fauji tasadum ki shakal ikhtiyar kar jayegi."
Tanazaat par nazar rakhne wale idare ACLED ne jume ko bataya ke Ethiopia ki fauj Sheraro aur Badme ke darmiyan tainaat hai, Eritrea ki forces qasbe ke kinare maujood hain, aur koi bhi fauj qasbe par qabiz nahin. Tanazaat ki nigrani karne wale idaron ke mutabiq Ethiopia ki forces ne 3 November ko Sheraro par qabza kiya tha. Badme 1998 se 2000 tak dono mumalik ke darmiyan sarhadi jang ka markaz tha, jis mein dasiyon hazar afraad halak hue.
G7 ke wuzra-e-kharja ne 9 aur 10 November ko Paris mein mulaqat ke dauran "gehri tashweesh" ka izhar kiya aur dono hukoomaton par "zyada se zyada tahammul" se kaam lene par zor diya.
Larai Kenya tak phail gayi
Janoob mein Ethiopia ke Oromia aur Somali ilaqon ki mutanaza hadd par larai, jo 18 October ko ek ilaqai parcham par tanaze aur 13 saala bachi ke qatl ke baad shuru hui, Kenya tak phail gayi hai.
Kenya ki Marsabit County ke governor Mohamud Ali ne jume ko bataya ke aawara goliyon se do Kenyan shehri halak aur 22 zakhmi hue, taqreeban 10 hazar rehaishi be-ghar hue, aur 50 hazar se zaid Ethiopian bashinde panah ki talaash mein county mein dakhil ho chuke hain. Un ke mutabiq ganjaan panahgahon mein khasra aur rubella ke cases ki tasdeeq hui hai.
Hafte ko maqami hukkam ne bataya ke mussalah Oromo militia ke arakeen ne Kenya ki Mandera County ke sarhadi ilaqe ke paar Ethiopia ke Dawa Zone mein ek basti par ali-us-subah hamla kar ke khawateen aur bachchon samait kam az kam 8 Somali shehriyon ko qatl kar diya.
