Ethiopian government accuses regional forces of a massacre in Tigray
Amnesty International says it has seen credible video evidence that scores and maybe hundreds of civilians have been killed in Tigray in Ethiopia, in the town of Mai-Kadra. The victims seem to be manual labourers who are not connected to the current conflict in the area, in which Ethiopian Federal forces have been fighting Tigrayan state forces for the last two weeks.
The Ethiopian president Abiy Ahmed has accused the regional government forces in Tigray of carrying out the massacre. Dr Bikila Hurissa is a Minister from the Ethiopian Prime Minister's Office.
