UN News reported that the United Nations voiced grave concern as fighting spread across northern Ethiopia and called for the protection of civilians and unhindered humanitarian access.

The UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs said the escalation risks adding to already substantial needs, including among civilians displaced by previous fighting in Tigray, in an area also experiencing below-average rainfall. It said humanitarian access has been severely restricted by disrupted telecommunications, suspended flights to and from Tigray and some locations in Amhara, and restrictions on key roads, limiting the movement of humanitarians, relief supplies and essential services. Operations were already under severe pressure from funding shortages, with several partners having scaled back or suspended activities. OCHA also noted that a drone strike in northwestern Tigray hit a truck carrying food assistance for displaced people. The UN and partners continue operations where security allows in Tigray, Amhara and Afar.
