DW News published this video item, entitled “Can Ethiopia’s hopes for peace in Tigray last? | DW News” – below is their description.

There are hopes of peace at last in Ethiopia. After two years of a bitter war, the government and Tigrayan forces recently agreed to stop fighting.

But that was after tens of thousands of people had been killed and millions more displaced, in one of the world’s worst humanitarian crises.

The truce has now reopened the Tigray region and passenger flights have just resumed allowing many people from the region to reunite with their loved ones.
