One man said Tigrayan fighters shot unarmed civilian men in Kebele 2 of Kobo town, killing one young man named Zinegnaw on the spot, and seriously wounding several others two days ago. The North Wollo Zone vice administrator, Gashaw Asmame told VOA that said his office is doing further investigation to get a full picture of the accusations committed by the TPLF forces in Kobo and Aradom. TPLF leaders in the past have denied that Tigrayan forces have killed civilians and committed wide-scale abuses in the areas they controlled. “In Amhara region, an interagency needs assessment was conducted in Mersa town, North Wollo Zone, where nearly 12,000 newly displaced people, mainly women and children, are taking refuge in five schools. “Partners will start distributing food and non-food items, and have mobilized a mobile health and nutrition team to the town,” OCHA added.
