A suspected air strike in Ethiopia’s Amhara region has killed at least 26 people, a hospital official said.
The strike in Finote Selam on Sunday was among the deadliest in the region, where the army has been fighting Fano, a paramilitary force.
Ethiopia’s human rights commission has expressed “grave concern” over the “deadly hostilities”.
PM Abiy Ahmed’s government imposed a six-month state of emergency across Amhara on 4 August.
The fighting has been fuelled by Fano accusations that the federal government is trying to weaken Amhara’s defences.
It is Ethiopia’s worst crisis since a civil war in the northern Tigray region ended in November. END
