The parties in the conflict in Ethiopia’s northern region of Tigray have agreed on a permanent cessation of hostilities.
The African Union mediator, Olusegun Obasanjo, said Ethiopian government and Tigrayan authorities have agreed on orderly, smooth and coordinated disarmament along with restoration of law and order.
This comes more than a week after formal peace talks began in South Africa.
The war, which broke out in November 2020, has pitted regional forces from Tigray against Ethiopia’s federal army and its allies.
