Fighting has resumed in northern Ethiopia's Afar region after a month-long lull, sources told AFP, as the government appeared to be pressing a new offensive.

"We do not target civilians and the alleged artillery attack is yet another [fictitious] accusation to tarnish our forces' reputation."

In July the TPLF pushed into the neighbouring Afar and Amhara regions, a move it said was intended to prevent government forces from regrouping and to break what it describes as a humanitarian siege of Tigray, where the UN estimates hundreds of thousands face famine-like conditions. Mr Reda said on Wednesday that the TPLF's current military objective is to "push back the offensive and go as far as it takes to break the siege on the people of Tigray".

"The conflict has devastated Tigray's healthcare system and no supplies of medicine have been allowed into the region since July," he added.The war has soured relations between Ethiopia and Western powers, including the United States, long a critical ally.
