      In addition, Abiy Ahmed began to take over the power of regional parties, one of which was the TPLF. The seizure of power led to increased tensions with the Ethiopian government and became increasingly heated as Abiy dismissed politicians from the TPLF party.
 This was done because it was suspected of having committed violations, one of which was corruption. So, the peak of this conflict occurred on November 4, 2020. This conflict has had an impact on its society such as humanitarian crises, murders, sexual violence, human rights violations, infrastructure damage and many more.

II. Discussion
2.1 Conflict characteristics
      The conflict that occurred between the Ethiopian federal government and the TPLF in November 2020 was initially thought to be a response to the rapid security operation by the federal government. However, the conflict eventually developed into a protracted conflict involving Ethiopian military forces and Eritrean military forces supporting Ethiopian forces.
 The cause of the increase in political tension that has become a military conflict is caused by the initial attack carried out by the TPLF against an Ethiopian military base in the Tigray region. According to TPLF, this attack was a form of self-defense anticipation against military buildup by the Ethiopian Defense Forces which reportedly occurred around the Tigray region (Nyadera & Osedo, 2023).
      So, on one occasion this TPLF managed to get a big profit. By building a full military force in Tigray before eventually invading other regions. These areas include Afar, Amhara and the march to the capital Addis Ababa which is only 380 kilometers from the city.Â
With this in mind, the Ethiopian government declared a state of emergency and began a conscription program for youth and retired military personnel loyal to the federal government aimed at fighting the attack of Tigray forces on the capital.
      The efforts made by this government to change the battlefield gave him an advantage. Where the Ethiopian government succeeded in encouraging the TPLF to return to the Tigray mountains. However, this conflict had a devastating and far-reaching impact by causing many people to die, and many others to starve. In addition, this conflict is one of the worst that has happened in the country in recent decades.
