Missiles hit Eritrean capital, Asmara, after Tigray threatens to attack Eritrea

There are reports that missiles have hit the Eritrean capital, Asmara.

The reports, which come from Eritreans in the diaspora who have spoken to residents, suggest that the airport and Ministry of Information were hit. Residents say there were very loud explosions.

There is said to be a blackout, with some people fleeing the city.

This follows statements broadcast on Tigray television today, saying that Eritrea would be among Tigray’s targets. Other targets were in Ethiopia.

This comes after reports that Eritrean troops have been involved in the fighting in Tigray, including shelling the town of Humera.

Sources close to the Eritrean government said that missiles had been fired at Asmara, but denied that the capital had been hit, saying that they landed in the countryside.

is it propaganda, or true?

Martin Plaut is a notorious liar, lights are still on, missiles were launched into Eritrea, but they landed in the outskirts of the city. I spoke with some family members they said they heard about 3 or so explosions but they did not landed in the outskirts. I'm hearing the same from other people as well. The general mood is to wait for Ethiopia to finish off the TPLF instead of flattening Mekelle in response and internationalizing this situation in Ethiopia like the TPLF wants.
