A deadly drone strike hit Ethiopia's Tigray region, dissident authorities in the region said Saturday, accusing the federal government of escalating tensions and raising fears of renewed war.
A civil war in 2020-2022 between the federal government and the Tigray People's Liberation Front (TPLF), which dominates the northern region, led to more than 600,000 deaths, according to African Union estimates.
A peace deal that ended the war has never been fully implemented and tensions have been mounting again in recent months.
