Less than two months after two warring sides in the Ethiopian civil war signed a peace accord, a high-level Ethiopian government delegation made the first visit to the capital of rebel-held Tigray on Monday.
As the two sides applauded the visit, the Tigrayan side said that the talks also aimed at restoring key services in the northern region.
"The delegation is the first of its stature as a high-level federal government body heading to Mekele in two years," the Ethiopian government said in a statement.
