Ethiopian government declares ceasefire until end of farming season

The government declared a ceasefire in Tigre after rebels took the capital, Mukele. Despite this, months of conflict have led to a severe hunger crisis, with a UN report indicating that a significant portion of the population faces food shortages. The conflict has disrupted food production and infrastructure, with accusations of pillage and destruction by Eritrean and Ethiopian forces. Humanitarian aid is severely restricted, affecting over a million people. Dire predictions suggest worsening food conditions due to previous locust infestations and COVID-19 impacts, with thousands of children at risk of starvation.
