Tigray conflict

Today's news report on Al jazeera TV Channel about escalation of violence in Tigray is unpleasant. I wish that the decades long violence ends so that Tigrai people can have relief. 

In my earlier posts I have mentioned the experience that I and my fellow Indian friend had during our few months of stay as school teachers in the region in early 1982. It is a pity that more than 40 years have passed by since then, without any good end, in spite of efforts by the Africa Union and International Agencies.
