Ethiopia has acquired Russian fighter jets and air defence systems while fighting continues in the northern Tigray region, according to the supplied material.

The military acquisitions come amid an ongoing conflict in Tigray that began last month. The material does not provide details about the number or type of aircraft and air defence equipment involved, nor does it explain how or when the systems were delivered.

The reported purchases underline the military context surrounding the conflict, but no further information is provided about their use or any impact they may have had on the fighting. The latest situation remains that hostilities are continuing in northern Tigray.
