Canada will finance investigation in Tigray after reports of massacres by Ethiopian, Eritrean soldiers

Ethiopian women carry away sacks of wheat after a food distribution by the Relief Society of Tigray in the town of Agula, in the Tigray region of northern Ethiopia.

The Canadian government is helping finance a formal investigation of widely reported atrocities in Ethiopia’s war in Tigray, but it says it hasn’t decided yet whether to join the United States in imposing sanctions on Ethiopia and Eritrea for their conduct in the war.
