CWN Editor's Note: Commenting on the Tigray War, Cardinal Berhaneyesus Souraphiel, the head of the Eastern-rite Ethiopian Catholic Church, said that “the humanitarian situation in Tigray continues to worsen.”

“The passage through the humanitarian corridors through which the United Nations, the government or other agencies try to bring food into the country, is sometimes blocked and we do not know for sure by whom,” he added. “The drought has worsened due to climate change. The humanitarian crisis is huge, and people are in dire need of help.”
