The UN Special Advisor on the Prevention of Genocide Alice Nderitu has condemned the escalation of conflict in northern Ethiopia, expressing concern over “worrying levels of violence”, hate speech and incitement to violence.
“The conflict has reached new worrying levels of violence since a five-month humanitarian truce was broken in August,” Ms Nderitu said in a statement this week.
