On 18 October 2021, the Ethiopian Air Force conducted two airstrikes on the city of Mekelle in the Tigray Region of Ethiopia during the Tigray War.[2] 3 children were killed in the strikes.[3]
On 20 October, there were new air strikes targeting inhabited areas of Tigray's capital city.[4] A large enterprise, Mesfin Industrial Engineering, was also targeted.
Airstrikes continued on 21 and 22 October; the latter was nearby Mekelle University main campus, and Mekelle Airport and coincided with the landing time of a UN humanitarian flight. As a consequence, the UN cancelled further humanitarian flights to Mekelle.[5]
