The TPLF has previously denied looting health facilities and blamed the government for shortages of humanitarian supplies. The United Nations says more than 90 percent of the region’s 5.5 million people need humanitarian assistance and 400,000 are living in famine-like conditions. The United Nations estimates at least 100 trucks of aid must enter Tigray each day to keep up with needs. There are three main routes into Tigray, but bridges along two of them were blown up as the Ethiopian military withdrew, OCHA reports said. Authorities often do not allow fuel and medication to get through, according to OCHA reports.
