Do you think this will escalate to anything serious? Do you think somalia will get involved? If they do how bad/good will it be.

Some Eritrean opposition anti Afwerki are already in talks with Ethiopians. They are diaspora based political groups and orgs.

Saho and afar are already pro Ethiopia, they want self determination, note that they live near Assab Port.

they will try and make the “liberation” excuse

People in Djibouti need to be careful of that as they also could give reasons for another country “liberating” afar land.

Nobody will mess up with Djibouti.

Saho are one of the most pro-Shabia ethnic groups. They definitely aren’t pro-Ethiopia nor do they live near Assab. Saho live in Akele Guzai.

Afars is more complex but they still aren’t pro-Ethiopia

btw the tweet is by a well known troll. He’s an agame larping as an Eritrean.

Abiy can send his troops. With the shape the ENDF is in right now, virtually no chance of them winning any sort of conflict.

Eritrea is about to have a lot of galla corpses to use as fertilizer

one of their leader is in Ethiopia. They may pretend to not be pro Ethiopia, but they definitely anti eritrea

The Afar Sultan is a joke these days. Afars definitely aren’t anti-Eritrea. They just have a strong sub-national identity

I know that Ethiopia's afar are pro Ethiopia, and that Sultan is in Ethiopia, those factors can lead to something Ethiopia wants.

If Abiy wants any smoke from Eritrea, why not begin with evicting them from Tigray/Ethiopia?

Afwerki loves Somalia but my friends are saho and they’re the highest Muslim population in Eritrea. Damn this sucks.

What is the point of their Islam here? Any ethio footsoldier is disgraceful, whether they are muslims or not.

I think they still have some presence there on the ground, but concentrated close to the borders.
