• Fighting between the ENDF and TPLF-aligned forces re-emerged in northern Ethiopia’s Afar, Amhara, and Tigray regions in late August, breaking a five-month truce which began on March 24. The clashes have resulted in civilian casualties, damage and destruction of property, and widespread displacement.

• Following a period of increased access due to the truce, the renewed hostilities in northern Ethiopia have disrupted humanitarian access and service delivery.

• With USAID/BHA support, the JEOP and WFP are providing in-kind food assistance to conflict-affected populations across Afar, Amhara, and Tigray to respond to widespread food insecurity
