[ColonelCassad] Having defeated the troops of Ethiopia on its territory, the army of the independent Tigray launched an attack on the central regions of Ethiopia, with the ultimate goal of reaching the capital of the country. Now battles have unfolded for the large city of Dessie.

The Ethiopian army is in a state of demoralization and partial decay, which leads to large losses, desertions and huge trophies from the Tygrai.In recent months, Ethiopia has lost more than 250 units of various equipment, which is destroyed or captured by the Tygrai army.

Several thousand soldiers surrendered - in 2021, the Tigray army holds the world record for the number of captured prisoners, even the Houthis were overtaken. Two divisions of the Ethiopian army virtually ceased to exist, two more suffered heavy losses.

But not so long ago Ethiopia controlled most of Tigray, including its capital. Disgracers.
