7K Ethiopian Army prisoners marched through Tigray; statement of TPLF ceasefire conditions

Says Rozhin:

[ColonelCassad] The disastrous finale of the Ethiopian-Tigray war.

A column of more than 7,000 captive soldiers of the Ethiopian army (a total of 7,521 prisoners are declared - count, by local standards, a whole division), which was driven through the streets of the capital Tigray, recently recaptured from the Ethiopians. In the style of driving captured Germans across Moscow in 1944 and captured Ukrainian Nazis in Donetsk in 2014.

The exile was carried out in response to statements by the Ethiopian Prime Minister that he had ordered an indefinite unilateral ceasefire for humanitarian reasons. Demonstrating thousands of prisoners, the NFOT insists that it has won and the central government simply cannot continue the war for military reasons.

Nevertheless, a grouping of the Ethiopian army of up to 30,000 people is now deployed on the border with Tigray, but apparently there is no political will to continue the war.
