Risks of the increasingly bloody war in northern Ethiopia turning into a chaotic regional conflict rose sharply this weekend after rocket strikes on the airport in neighbouring Eritrea’s capital, Asmara.

Multiple rockets struck Asmara on Saturday night, diplomats and informed regional observers said, though communication restrictions in Tigray and Eritrea made the reports difficult to verify.

One source in Asmara said the missiles missed the airport, with one landing not far from the information ministry building. The city has since suffered widespread power cuts.

Right back into civil war.
 
Well that's weird. That kind of stuff never happened before they threw the white Europeans out.

Color me shocked.
 
Africa is going to be the Middle East of the last 40 years. China has been aggressive in "lending" and building there. All at a cost to the locals, of course. They've built hundreds of government buildings and telecommunication networks with Chinese workers, not to keep an eye on the citizens there of course...
