The United Nations World Food Programme is warning that what is effectively a blockade on aid convoys by rival forces in Ethiopia's Tigray is bringing millions to the brink of famine.
The WFP estimated that 100 truckloads of aid are needed in Tigray each day, and the spread of the conflict into the neighbouring Afar and Amhara regions is expected increase the number of displaced people needing aid.
It is a stark warning for a nation that has already suffered much.
