UN SG Urges Action on Ethiopia Situation
The Secretary-General of the United Nations, António Guterres, expressed his deep concern over the deteriorating situation in northern Ethiopia. He highlighted that forces have taken control of the airports in Mekelle, Axum, and Shire, and that fighting has intensified in Tigray and neighboring areas, with hostilities spreading to other regions. He called on all parties to exercise restraint and immediately de-escalate tensions, while emphasizing the importance of protecting civilians, ensuring the safe delivery of humanitarian aid, and avoiding any escalation that could lead to a broader and more destructive conflict. He reiterated the UN's support for the efforts of the African Union, including initiatives led by Nigeria’s former President, aimed at re-engaging the parties in dialogue to end the conflict.
