The pattern/playbook is boringly the same. Some obscure entities with organic links to major intel agencies fabricate a defamatory story or narrative to sully the image of their victim country or prey; in this case Eritrea.
Within minutes, NED/USAID/EU funded media outlets (The Guardian et al and associated regional networks, Addis Standard etc.) recycle and amplify the story for maximum coverage.
This is the modus operandi of the subtly crafted Eco-chamber: the closed loop of defamation and disinformation.
This is the context and ecosystem of the resurgence these days, for whatever underlying reason, of the wholesale assaults against the EDF.
Let's underline the civilized Rules of Engagement of the EPLA during the liberation war and on whose legacy and operational doctrine the EDF was established.
Let us recall that even during the last days of the independence war, the EPLA released and ensured the safe repatriation of 100,000 Ethiopian POWs. (Article below elaborates on this legacy and the EDF's Rules of Engagement)
In the words of one journalist who visited the field,
Eritrea Exposes the Lies – Abiy’s Field Marshal Spills the Truth!
Abiy’s sea-access agenda isn't about trade. It’s about war, expansion, and power. His Field Marshal Berhanu Jula (ex-POW) just said it out loud.
Facts vs. Fabrications:
FACT: Jula confirmed: “We’re training a navy – now we need a base.”
🟢 ERITREA SAYS: We’re not your colony. Your expansionist dreams die at our borders.
FACT: Abiy’s regime threatens to take Eritrean ports by force, while crying victim to the international community.
🟢 ERITREA SAYS: You don’t get to threaten peace and then play the victim.
FACT: Abiy burned Amhara, Oromia, Tigray — and now wants to bring his chaos north.
🟢 ERITREA SAYS: Not happening. We’re ready.
Abiy’s Footprints: Sudan
, Somalia
— destabilization everywhere.
🟢 Next Target: Eritrea? Good luck. Eritrea won’t just block it — it will END it..
What the World Must Understand:
Eritrea is doing everything to avoid war, even pulling back troops from its own sovereign territory (EEBC ruling 2002).
Eritrea is building peace across its borders — Sudanese and Tigrayans are reconnecting in harmony.
Eritrea is exposing the plot now — so when war comes, and we win it decisively, no one should come crying “sanctions.”
A Clear Warning to Abiy & His Masters:
Eritrea saved Abiy's àss once — and knows where to strike this time.
Eritrea is ready to end your rule, if you drag the region into war.
Eritrea has zero fear and 100% capability to shut down your adventurism — for good.
Bottom Line:
Eritrea wants peace, but we are not afraid of war.
Our ports are sovereign. Our patience is not weakness.

In psychology, "externalizing problems" is a mental health issue characterized by the tendency to attribute the cause of problems to external factors, often involves blaming others, rather than taking personal responsibility. While externalizing one's own problems can provide temporary relief from uncomfortable feelings, it can delay addressing the root cause of the problems.
Externalizing behaviors in children are outward-directed actions like aggression, defiance, and impulsivity that can disrupt the environment and cause problems for the child. These behaviors, often observed in early childhood, can persist into adulthood and negatively impact various aspects of life.
