UN warns of 'unprecedented' malnutrition among pregnant and lactating women in Tigray as fears of mass starvation grow nearly 11 months after northern Ethiopia erupted in conflict
On Thursday, Ethiopia announced it would expel seven senior UN officials for "meddling" in its affairs, including the local heads of the UN children's agency UNICEF and its humanitarian coordination office.
However a draft Security Council statement initiated by Ireland has little chance of success, several diplomats told AFP after the meeting. It said the officials were responsible for the "dissemination of misinformation and politicisation of humanitarian assistance", but provided no proof to support any of the claims.
The UN's humanitarian chief Martin Griffiths has previously condemned accusations by Ethiopian government officials that aid workers were biased in favour of – and even arming – the TPLF, calling the claims unfair and dangerous.
