Thousands of Ethiopians crossed Monday and Tuesday into Sudanese territory to escape the battles in the Ethiopian region of Tigray, bordering the Sudanese states of Gedaref and Kassala, according to a Sudanese official. They crossed the border in the Al-Luqdi area, along the Gedaref state. " "The local community and local authorities have provided aid to the fleeing," he added. He stressed that "this is beyond the capacity of the local authorities, and so far no international organizations have arrived in the region to help." "The soldiers surrendered to a Sudanese military post, and now a classification process for asylum seekers is underway," Khaled added.
