----
September 22, 2026 (Tigray Mass Media Agency) — An airstrike by the genocidal Abiy Ahmed’s regime on Alamata in Southern Tigray killed 14 civilians and severely injured 22 others, who are receiving treatment at Alamata General Hospital, according to Mayor of the city, Moges Shiferaw.
Moges stated that the genocidal Abiy Ahmed regime carried out 20 drone strikes on Alamata at around 9:30 a.m. on September 22, 2026, followed by a 21st strike by a jet that killed 14 civilians and severely injured 22 others. He said the strikes targeted civilians traveling to a market and areas along the Alamata–Tmuga route, including near Zekre Meles Secondary School and Iyasu Berhe Secondary School. The attacks also caused extensive damage to the two schools, according to the mayor.
The mayor said the daily attacks by the genocidal Abiy Ahmed’s regime continue to cut short Tigrayan lives and destroy property and livelihoods. He added that the attacks reflect the regime’s desire to eradicate the people of Tigray.
The mayor condemned the strikes and urged residents to take precautions to reduce casualties from further attacks.
Seven Ethiopian armed groups, including longstanding enemies who fought on opposite sides of a 2020-2022 civil war, said they have formed an alliance aimed at overthrowing Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed's government. https://t.co/1ZwiSJUEIC
