Ethiopian Forces Take Control of Mekelle as Tigray Rebels Retreat
What happened
Ethiopian government troops captured key sites in Mekelle, including the local airport, following a withdrawal by TPLF rebel forces from the Tigray regional capital.
How coverage differs
Israel Hayom emphasizes Ethiopian military power, describing heavy airstrikes and government forces raising the national flag in the city center. Ynet frames the update within the renewed civil war, explicitly referencing Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed's Nobel Peace Prize and citing reports of looting. Israelinfo delivers a brief, neutral factual update focused primarily on the capture of the airport and the rebels' departure.
