Ethiopia: Hunger ‘used as a weapon of war’ in Tigray conflict

As the war in Ethiopia enters its fifth month, millions of displaced people in the northern region of Tigray are now facing a further crisis – hunger.

Violence has interrupted the main food supply routes and farms have been destroyed.

Many have lost their income and prices have increased for the little food still available to buy.

Pressure is now mounting on the country’s Nobel peace prize-winning Prime Minister to supply aid to the starving.
