Tigrai Television, controlled by the regional authorities, blamed the strike on Friday in Mekelle on the federal government. Federal government spokesman Legesse Tulu and military spokesman Colonel Getnet Adane did not respond to Reuters queries regarding the air strike, which happened days after fighting resumed between Ethopia's government and Tigray forces on the border of the Tigray and Amhara regions. The vast majority of residents of Tigray have had no access to telephone or internet service for more than a year.
