Seventh graders at the Kiros Gessesse Elementary School attend class a week after schools in Mekele had resumed full operations on June 16, 2021 in Mekele, Ethiopia. The school is currently operating at full capacity but is contending with a lack of exercise books. G7 leaders recently called for unimpeded access for aid workers in the region where government forces and Eritrean troops have fought regional rebels starting last November. The UN says 350,000 people here are living in famine conditions, a characterization the Ethiopian government disputes, although they have admitted to “food insecurity” in Tigray.
