Hamdayat, on the border between Sudan and Ethiopia (CNN)Huyeet is limping as he crosses the border, his leg bandaged with dirty gauze.
As he enters Sudan, fleeing Ethiopia’s Tigray province, border guards direct him to the first aid tent nearby.
The medical facilities here are basic and Huyeet grimaces as the grimy dressing is unraveled, revealing a gunshot wound.
Huyeet is 24, and like many of the people CNN met as they crossed the border, he refuses to give his surname. Even here, so far from home, he says he feels unsafe.
Huyeet says that when the Ethiopian Army captured his hometown, Humera, its soldiers reassured Huyeet and those with him that they would be safe
