Ethiopia marks one year of brutal civil war in Tigray region

In tonight’s edition: It has been a year since Ethoipian Prime minister Abiy Ahmed triggered a civil war by sending in troops to the Northern region of Tigray after local TPLF forces seized military bases there. The country is still mired in conflict. Thousands have been killed, two million forced from their homes, around 400,000 face famine and both sides are accused of atrocities. A year on, calls for a ceasefire are growing amid deepening conflict.
