Tigray: Eyewitness says Ethiopian government forces attacked the town of Humera

Dr Tewedros Tefera is a medical doctor and general surgeon at the main hospital in the Tigrayan town of Humera and he describes when it was attacked by Ethiopian government forces on November 8th. He has fled across the border to Sudan. Also: despite allegations of fraud and a boycott of the vote by the opposition, we’ll look ahead to Sunday’s parliamentary elections in Venezuela; and US job growth slowed sharply in November, will Congress approve a $900 billion relief bill?

Joining Celia Hatton to discuss these and other issues are Lone Thiels, Danish crime novelist and journalist; and Andrea Sella a broadcaster and professor of chemistry at University College London.
