Situation in Tigray is volatile and humanitarian needs are growing: we must scale up our response
Format
The humanitarian situation of the Tigray region in Ethiopia is proving to be a real challenge for humanitarian international organizations and NGOs. Access remains unpredictable while the humanitarian needs are rising.
Food aid is the top priority at the moment. In Mekelle, the capital city of the Tigray region, churches and host communities are doing their best to accommodate the needs of those in need, but their efforts are not enough. Schools used as IDPs centres are packed with people who live on top of each other. This is concerning from a health and hygiene point of view, but it is also insufferable for those living there.
