As the civil war in Ethiopia rages on, the head of the main hospital in the Tigray region’s capital says two airstrikes Wednesday morning have killed at least ten people. The first airstrike hit Mekelle, the regional capital of Ethiopia’s Tigray region at around 7.30 a.m. Wednesday morning, according to Dr. Kibrom Gebreselassie, the director of the flagship Ayder hospital in the capital. The Tigray region’s leadership and doctors at the hospital say the Ethiopian government is using drones for the latest attacks. Hospital officials said that other cases were being rushed to surgery both at Ayder and the nearby Mekelle General Hospital. Wednesday’s airstrikes are the latest of several to hit Mekelle since fighting resumed in Tigray in late August.
