Residents in Mekele, Tigray's capital, express fears of renewed conflict following a two-year civil war that caused immense loss of life. Troop movements and sporadic clashes have resurfaced concerns about stability. Many individuals emphasize the need for a peaceful solution to rebuild their lives as living costs rise. Political turmoil within Tigray complicates the situation, with the Tigray People's Liberation Front (TPLF) facing internal divisions, leading to worries about Eritrea's possible involvement and resurgence of violence in the region.

Reports of troop movements and sporadic clashes have emerged in recent months, feeding concern that the fragile calm could soon collapse.
