These refugees fled a massacre in Ethiopia's Tigray region. They join tens of thousands making the journey to Sudan

 As the conflict in Ethiopia continues to escalate, thousands of Tigray people have fled the region and moved into Sudan. Massacres in the Tigray region have led to people needing to escape death and what the UN is calling a humanitarian crisis. The government has denied the mass murder of its citizens but the eyewitness reports speak of gunshots and stabbings in the streets. Communication in Tigray continues to be shut down, proving to people around the world that there is more than meets the eye in the streets. People that do not flee to Sudan or other regions of Ethiopia have flooded the hospitals, leaving the country and regions short on resources to help the sick and dying.
