We know it was un that gave them the 400 trucks, but what about the tanks, heavy weapons and gasoline to operate these machinery, where and who gave them these weapons?

Here is the list: After the Ethio-Eritrea war sort of ended Weyanne appropriated every weapon that was sent to the war --paid by the Ethiopian people.
Till the war started 75% of the mechanized army was stationed in Tigry and all the generals who order where the heavy weapons were supposed to be stationed were exclusively weyanes. For 27 years.
Since they control the chain of command in every section of ENDF weyanes were able to import from other countries through Djibuty and send it directly to Tigry without the Federal government knowledge. In essence, they were the federal government. Don't forget again fully Paid by Ethiopian taxpayers.
You have to understand they knew 5% controlling 95% could last only if they have overwhelming military superiority over other so-called nations and nationalities. Superiority they did have. . Weyanes to their credit they never lost sleep accumulating weapons and training for a would-be war. All training given to Ethiopia by the US and European in the name of anti-terrorism was given exclusively to Tigrian .
Though there might have been weapons left by the Ethiopian army in their uncoordinated evacuation, for the most part,weyanes have been hiding heavy weapons for this eventuality. What they didn't have was a cause to fight for, An astronomical overconfidence, and an underestimation of their opponents, which turned out to be a deadly mistake.
