The Guardian: Dozens of bodies found floating in river between Ethiopia’s Tigray and Sudan
Witnesses report some of the corpses had gunshot wounds or their hands tied amid escalating conflict in the region in recent weeks
A Sudanese official has said local authorities in Kassala province have found around 50 bodies, apparently people fleeing the war in neighbouring Ethiopia’s Tigray region, floating in the river between the countries over the past week.
Some bodies were found with gunshot wounds or their hands bound, and the official said on Monday a forensic investigation was needed to determine the causes of death.
