Amnesty International Says Eritrean Troops Killed Hundreds Of Civilians In Ethiopia’s Tigray

 

France 24: Eritrean troops killed hundreds of civilians in Ethiopia’s Tigray, Amnesty says

The rights watchdog spoke to survivors of the atrocities and used satellite images to piece together the bloody events of last November in the ancient town of Axum in a new report.
