Ethiopia's government announced a unilateral ceasefire in the nation's restive northern region of Tigray on Monday. It said the move was to facilitate humanitarian assistance as well as agricultural activities before the rains arrive. The UN says the region is on the brink of famine due to a months-long conflict between the central government and the region's rebels.
