‘Emaciated’ survivors hint at worse in Ethiopia’s Tigray
NAIROBI, Kenya (AP) – “Many, many severe cases of malnutrition” are being reported in Ethiopia´s embattled Tigray region, Red Cross officials said Wednesday, as 80% of Tigray´s 6 million people are unreachable in the fourth month of fighting and “emaciated” women and children fill displacement camps.
Reports of people already starving to death might just be a handful, but “after a month it will be in the thousands,” warned Ethiopian Red Cross president Ato Abera Tola. After two months, he said, it will be tens of thousands.
