(Roger Sandberg/Medical Teams International via AP)A destroyed bridge over the Tekeze River is seen in the Tigray region of northern Ethiopia Thursday, July 1, 2021. The bridge on a main supply route linking western Tigray that is crucial to delivering desperately needed food to much of Ethiopia's embattled Tigray region has been destroyed, aid groups said Thursday. Amhara authorities have occupied western Tigray and forced out hundreds of thousands of ethnic Tigrayans. In a stunning turn earlier this week, Ethiopia declared a unilateral cease-fire on humanitarian grounds while retreating from Tigray forces.
