The Ethiopian government has announced new restrictions on reporting the war, in which Tigrayan rebels are said to be continuing their advance towards the capital.
In a warning to news outlets and social media users, it has banned the reporting of any military movements or updates from the battlefield – unless the information has been approved by the government.
Meanwhile state media have shown footage of the Prime Minister, Abiy Ahmed, in a rural location wearing a military uniform, after saying days ago that he would head to the frontline to direct the conflict.
