Ethiopia's Tigray crisis: 'Civilians massacred', says Amnesty International - BBC News

"Scores and probably hundreds" of civilians have been massacred in the growing conflict in Tigray in northern Ethiopia, Amnesty International says.

Witnesses blamed forces loyal to the Tigray People's Liberation Front (TPLF) for Monday's killings but Amnesty says it cannot confirm this.

Fighting between government forces and the TPLF broke out last week.

Getting information is hard, with phone lines and the internet down and neither side has commented on Amnesty's report.

This would be the first large-scale killing of civilians in the conflict.
