According to local health workers the death toll could climb as more patients were reaching the hospital. An Associated Press cameraman in the capital city showed images of what appeared to be ordinary civilians dead or dying in pools of blood being carried away into ambulances. On Tuesday morning, a drone strike hit a university campus in Mekele, causing an unknown number of injuries. In a weekend statement to mark the beginning of Ethiopia’s new year, the Tigray leadership said they were ready to participate in an “immediate” cessation of hostilities leading to a comprehensive ceasefire. But Ethiopia’s federal government is yet to publicly respond amid reports of more talks between the two sides in Djibouti. Several airstrikes have hit Mekele since fighting resumed between Tigray forces and Ethiopia’s government in late August, shattering a period of relative calm since late March. That calm had allowed more humanitarian aid to reach Tigray but those deliveries were halted, according to the United Nations. Deliveries to conflict-affected parts of the neighboring Amhara region also stopped. Since the conflict broke out in November 2020, tens of thousands were believed to have been killed and millions displaced in the Tigray, Amhara and Afar regions. =========================================================== Clients are reminded: (i) to check the terms of their licence agreements for use of content outside news programming and that further advice and assistance can be obtained from the AP Archive on: Tel +44 (0) 20 7482 7482 Email: [email protected] (ii) they should check with the applicable collecting society in their Territory regarding the clearance of any sound recording or performance included within the AP Television News service (iii) they have editorial responsibility for the use of all and any content included within the AP Television News service and for libel, privacy, compliance and third party rights applicable to their Territory.
