Health workers say at least 26 civilians were killed in a drone strike in a town in Ethiopia’s Amhara region. The attack Sunday took place in the central town of Finote Selam, in the West Gojam Zone of Ethiopia’s Amhara region. A doctor at Finote Selam Hospital who spoke on the condition of anonymity said injured people started arriving around midday. Essential supplies for saving lives, including oxygen tanks, have been running short due to roadblocks in the area, according to health workers in Finote Selam. The commission also said that civilians were subject to beatings and killings in many areas of Bahir Dar, the capital city of Amhara region.
