ADDIS ABABA: At least 64 people were killed and 180 injured in an Ethiopian air strike on a market in the war-torn Tigray region, a local health officer told AFP on Thursday. "The air strike was in the market area, so many, many people were injured," said Mulu Atsbaha, an advisor to the Tigray regional administration on maternal and child health. The strike on Tuesday in Togoga town also left 180 injured, Mulu added.
He said the toll had been gathered from residents of Togoga town, 30-km north-west of the regional capital Mekele, and "confirmed with local leaders". Ethiopia’s army spokesman said on Thursday that the military carried out the attack on Togoga, but said rebel fighters were the target.
