9月28日——据亲政府的民兵组织称，埃塞俄比亚军队及其盟友武装人员占领了位于提格雷州首府以南的战略要地阿拉马塔镇。这一行动扭转了上周反对派从该地区发起的进攻局势。
Sept 28 - Ethiopia's military and allied militiamen captured the strategic town of Alamata south of Tigray's capital, a pro-government militia said on Monday, turning the tables after an opposition offensive launched from the region last week.
亲政府的“提格雷和平力量”组织在其Facebook页面上发布的视频显示，士兵们举着埃塞俄比亚国旗在街道上行进。路透社暂时无法核实该视频的真实性。
Video posted by the pro-government Tigrai Peace Force on its Facebook page showed soldiers marching through the streets, waving Ethiopian flags. Reuters could not immediately verify the video.
另有两位外交消息人士也证实该镇已被占领；第三位消息人士则表示亲政府部队已进入该镇，但尚不清楚他们是否已完全控制该地区。
Two diplomatic sources also said the town had fallen, while a third said the pro-government forces had entered but it was not yet clear whether they were fully in control.
埃塞俄比亚军方以及领导反抗联邦政府的“提格雷人民解放阵线”（TPLF）的发言人均未立即回应相关媒体的评论请求。
Spokespeople for the Ethiopian military and the Tigray People's Liberation Front (TPLF), which is leading the armed resistance to the federal government, did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
如果阿拉马塔镇真的被占领，对于正向北方向约120公里（75英里）外的州首府梅克勒进发的联邦军队来说，这将是一个重大胜利。作为军队、食品和燃料的重要补给中心，阿拉马塔在2020年至2022年的内战中曾多次易手。
The capture of Alamata would be a major boon to federal forces as they press towards the regional capital Mekelle, about 120 km (75 miles) to the north. An important supply hub for troops, food and fuel near Tigray's southern border with the neighbouring Amhara region, Alamata exchanged hands several times during a 2020-2022 civil war.
埃塞俄比亚军方指责邻国支持反对派自上周三以来，提格雷州及邻近的阿姆哈拉州和阿法尔州发生的冲突彻底破坏了长达四年的《普雷托利亚协议》——该协议曾结束了导致数十万人死亡的战争。
ETHIOPIAN MILITARY ACCUSES NEIGHBORS OF BACKING OPPOSITION The fighting since last Wednesday in Tigray and the neighboring regions of Amhara and Afar has shattered a four-year-old peace deal, the Pretoria Agreement, that ended fighting that killed hundreds of thousands of people.
2020年至2022年的内战源于“提格雷人民解放阵线”（TPLF）与埃塞俄比亚政府之间的关系破裂。该游击组织曾主导埃塞俄比亚政治近三十年，直到2018年阿比耶（Abiy）当选总理后，其统治地位才被终结。
The 2020-2022 civil war stemmed from a breakdown in relations between the TPLF, a guerrilla movement turned political party that dominated Ethiopian politics for nearly three decades, and Abiy, whose appointment as prime minister in 2018 ended the TPLF’s dominance.
近几个月来，TPLF与联邦政府互相指责对方违反2022年11月达成的协议。在发动进攻前三天，TPLF宣布与埃塞俄比亚境内的其他六个武装组织结成新的联盟，旨在推翻阿比耶的政府。
In recent months, the TPLF and federal government have traded accusations of violating the November 2022 agreement. Three days before launching its offensive, the TPLF announced a new alliance with six other armed groups across Ethiopia aimed at overthrowing Abiy's government.
重燃的冲突加剧了非洲之角的动荡，该地区本已因苏丹内战、红海通道摩擦以及中东冲突的外溢而动荡不安。
The renewed conflict adds to instability in the Horn of Africa, already unsettled by Sudan's civil war, frictions over Red Sea access and spillover from Middle East conflicts.
埃塞俄比亚最高军事指挥官贝尔哈努·朱拉周日在官方媒体播出的讲话中重申了此前的指控，称埃塞俄比亚的邻国兼历史宿敌厄立特里亚正在支持反对派武装，苏丹武装部队和埃及也是如此。
In comments broadcast on state media on Sunday, the top Ethiopian military commander, Berhanu Jula, reiterated previous accusations that Ethiopia's neighbour and historical rival Eritrea was supporting the opposition forces, alongside Sudan's armed forces and Egypt.
厄立特里亚和苏丹军方均否认了这些指控。埃及未立即回应置评请求。
Eritrea and Sudan's army have denied the allegations. Egypt did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
提格雷电信网络仍处于瘫痪状态 这场冲突引发了人们的担忧，担心会重演2020-2022年战争期间经历的人道主义危机，当时联邦政府切断了与提格雷的通讯，粮食、现金和药品的获取受到严重限制。
TELECOMMUNICATIONS NETWORKS REMAIN DOWN IN TIGRAY The conflict has raised fears of a return to the humanitarian crisis experienced during the 2020-2022 war when the federal government severed communications with Tigray and access to food, cash and medicines was severely restricted.
在提格雷，互联网和电话网络中断已持续第四天。四名消息人士周五告诉路透社，提格雷人民解放阵线（TPLF）下令关闭了网络。提格雷人民解放阵线未回应关于此事的置评请求。
In Tigray, internet and phone networks remained disrupted for a fourth day. Four sources told Reuters on Friday that the TPLF had ordered the networks shut down. The TPLF has not responded to requests for comment about this.
提格雷尚未从2020-2022年战争造成的毁灭性人道主义代价中恢复过来，那场战争将数十万人推向饥荒边缘。根据联合国难民署的数据，截至2月，仍有约75万提格雷人在境内流离失所，该地区还面临着与厄尔尼诺现象相关的干旱。
Tigray is yet to recover from the devastating humanitarian toll of the 2020-2022 war, which pushed hundreds of thousands into famine conditions. Around 750,000 Tigrayans were still internally displaced as of February, according to the UN refugee agency, and the region is facing drought linked to El Nino.
