GENEVA, Jan 14, 2022 (BSS/AFP) - At least 108 civilians have been killed
so far in January in a series of airstrikes in the war-torn northern Tigray
region of Ethiopia, the United Nations said Friday.

   "We are alarmed by the multiple, deeply disturbing reports we continue to
receive of civilian casualties and destruction of civilian objects resulting
from airstrikes in Ethiopia's Tigray region.

 At least 108 civilians have reportedly been killed and 75 others injured
since the year began, as a result of air strikes allegedly carried out by the
Ethiopian air force," Liz Throssell, a spokeswoman for the UN human rights
office, told reporters in Geneva.
