Ethiopia's prime minister said Thursday the army has been ordered to move on the embattled Tigray regional capital after his 72-hour ultimatum for Tigray leaders to surrender ended, and he warned residents to stay indoors and disarm. His government has warned of "no mercy" if residents don't move away from the Tigray leaders in time. It asserts that thousands of Tigray militia and special forces surrendered during the 72-hour period. People who fled the conflict in Ethiopia's Tigray region walk at Umm Rakouba refugee camp in Qadarif, eastern Sudan on Wednesday. Human Rights Watch is warning that "actions that deliberately impede relief supplies" violate international humanitarian law.
