No aid convoy has reached Tigray, which has endured 15 months of war, since mid-December, the UN WFP agency says

Many people were using extreme coping strategies like cutting the number of meals they eat daily, it said. Government spokesperson Legesse Tulu did not immediately respond to a request for comment on the WFP assessment but on Monday he accused the TPLF of using “hunger as a political tool”.The Ethiopian government said last week that 43 trucks would deliver food and other aid to Tigray, but no trucks have arrived as fighting rages along the border between the Afar and Tigray regions.
