MSF Reports Sharp Increase in War-Wounded in Northern Ethiopia

Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) reported a sharp surge in war-related casualties at hospitals in Korem and Alamata, Northern Ethiopia. Within a 48-hour period in late September, the number of wounded patients admitted to these facilities rose from approximately 180 to over 420. MSF noted that this figure only represents those who managed to reach medical care, not the total count of the dead or injured. International observers, including European authorities, have expressed alarm regarding the deteriorating situation. This escalation signals renewed concerns over the stability of the region and the humanitarian impact of the ongoing conflict.
