Ethiopia - Tigray Region Humanitarian Update Situation Report, 25 January 2021
Format
HIGHLIGHTS
The security in Tigray remains unstable and unpredictable. The situation is particularly volatile in rural areas where large numbers of people are believed to have fled.
The Logistics Cluster reached Shire, for the first time since the conflict started, with 40 metric tons of food items.
Partners on the ground are receiving reports indicating rising hunger, as the conflict exacerbated the lean season and desert locust infestation.
Due to the conflict, farmers have missed the harvest season and with regional trade blocked, the local markets have or are nearing collapsing.
Ethiopians in the war-scarred north are dying from lack of healthcare services, are suffering food and water shortages, and remain "terrified", according to aid agencies finally accessing remoter parts of Tigray region.
