Announcement, which follows US envoy’s visit, comes with 90% of Tigrayans in need of food aid
Ethiopia’s government has declared an immediate truce with rebellious Tigrayan forces to allow aid into the war-ravaged northern province.
A spokesperson for the Tigrayan forces did not respond to a request for comment on the announcement on Thursday, which follows a visit by the US special envoy for the Horn of Africa, David Satterfield, to the Ethiopian capital, Addis Ababa, this week.
