Ethiopia says No, to airdrops and external flights

Intro 

The Ethiopian government has rejected urgent appeals from aid organizations to airdrop food supplies into the northern region Tigray- this as troops across Ethiopia say they are ready to mobilize against Tigray.

The government has also blocked direct flights from outside Ethiopia to the region. The ongoing conflict has sparked a dire humanitarian crisis.
