A suspected air strike over the weekend killed at least 26 people in Ethiopia's embattled Amhara region, a hospital official said on Monday, as the region continues to be rocked by deadly clashes.

The strike on Sunday marked the deadliest reported since clashes between members of the Ethiopian army and a local militia known as Fano erupted in towns and cities across Amhara after months of tensions.
