We are deeply alarmed by deteriorating conditions of Eritrean refugees in Tigray, Ethiopia. Refugees are struggling to get food, medicine and clean water. We urgently need to relocate them to provide life-saving assistance, or more refugees may die. This has left refugees with no option but to drink from streams that are rapidly drying up, leaving them vulnerable to water-borne diseases. The development comes as UN aid coordination office, OCHA, warned that food distribution in Tigray is at its “all-time lowest”.
