Ethiopia and Eritrea have severed diplomatic ties, with both nations expelling each other's diplomats amid ongoing conflict in the Tigray region. The diplomatic breakdown began when Ethiopia declared ten Eritrean diplomats persona non grata, citing what it described as direct and indirect acts of hostility from its neighbor.
In response to the expulsions, Eritrea announced the formal termination of its diplomatic relations with Ethiopia, stating that it had no choice but to reciprocate in kind as bilateral relations between the two neighboring countries rapidly deteriorate.
