The NUG claims that according to their records in the time period between July 2024 and August of 2026 Junta casualties were:

20,383 killed
9,792 wounded
Approximately 23,874 deserted or defected
536 are currently POW's

This would all equal to roundabout 55k casualties in the last two years, with the conflict ongoing since 2021

Note that these figures are their official confirmed records and as with any military may be inflated, however they may also be an undercount due to only confirmed casualties counting, which is why there are such specific numbers, and there may be more unconfirmed casualties

🇪🇹🇪🇷 - Ethiopian and Uguugumo-affiliated media report that the Ethiopian Armed Forces, ENDF, have withdrawn from the Afdera area of northern Afar. It remains unconfirmed whether Uguugumo forces advancing from Dalol have captured the town of Afdera.

Interesting observation: While the ENDF continues to advance through the harsh terrain of Tigray against the far more formidable Tigray Defense Forces, it has seemingly allowed Uguugumo rebels to seize vast swathes of open territory in Afar that could otherwise be defended using Ethiopia’s air and drone power.

Compounding this is Addis Ababa’s decision to bar international media from entering northern Afar to cover the Uguugumo offensive, with access restricted to Ethiopian state-backed outlets and of course al-Jazeera. The only individuals permitted to speak with al-Jazeera have been pro-Addis Ababa Afar regional officials, all of whom have repeated the exact same line: Eritrean forces are involved in the Uguugumo offensive.

Map key:
- Red: Tigray Defense Forces,
- Blue: Fano,

🇪🇹⚡- Tigray Defense Forces, TDF, positions along the Sekota axis have completely collapsed, with the Ethiopian military, ENDF, reversing all TDF gains made over the past week and pushing into the Tigray region itself.

The ENDF and its allies, the Tigray Peace Forces, have captured Finarwa, Abergele and Zamra. Overnight, the ENDF attempted to advance towards the city of Samre, although it remains unconfirmed whether the offensive succeeded.

The loss of Samre would be catastrophic for the TDF, as the major town lies just 38km south of the Tigray capital, Mekele.

Six years ago, Samre witnessed some of the fiercest battles of the TPLF-ENDF war. The town was captured and held by the TPLF for much of the conflict.
