Fighting spreads along borders of Ethiopia's Tigray region

Fighting has erupted between Ethiopian troops and Tigrayan forces along the border with Sudan, Ethiopia's government said on Wednesday, marking a significant escalation in hostilities after a four-month-old ceasefire broke down last week.

Getachew Reda, a spokesperson for the Tigray People's Liberation Front (TPLF), did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
