		</div><p>A new airstrike hit the capital of Ethiopia’s Tigray region on Thursday following several days of such strikes last week.</p>
<p>A Tigray spokesman asserted that six people including children were killed, as the year-long war intensifies.</p>
<p>Government spokesman Legesse Tulu told The Associated Press the airstrike targeted a site in Mekele city used by rival Tigray forces to make and repair weapons.</p>
<p>He said the site forms part of a compound belonging to Mefsin Industrial Engineering, which was also hit last week.</p>
<p>Tigray spokesman Nahusenay Belay denied that the airstrike hit a military target and said it struck a “civilian residence”, killing six people and wounding more than 20. Three children were among the dead, he said.</p>
<p>Photos from the scene appeared to show rescuers pulling bodies from debris.</p>
<p>Ethiopia’s government has asserted that the latest airstrikes have been confined to military targets, but Tigray forces have asserted that civilian facilities including factories and a clinic have been targeted instead.</p>
<p>Meanwhile, fighting continues in Ethiopia’s neighbouring Amhara region after the government of Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed launched a ground offensive there earlier this month, despite international calls for a cease-fire.</p>
