Aid Efforts in Ethiopia's Tigray Thwarted by Lack of Access Keminni Amanor About 1.3 million Ethiopian children continue to suffer despite humanitarian efforts 12 weeks into the conflict in the Tigray Region, the United Nations' children's agency said in a press release Wednesday. UNICEF's inability to fully assess the impact on children because of access restrictions could worsen their conditions, the release said. "Our knowledge of the situation is still very limited. Our concern is that what we don't know could be even more disturbing." .
