Ethiopia: Tigray conflict escalates

Newsday

Available for over a year

Ethiopia's prime minister Abiy Ahmed rejects a request for peace talks, while the regional Tigrayan government has called for its people to mobilise. We're live in Hong Kong following the mass resignation of pro-democracy politicians. Is there now any opposition voice left in the territory? And the latest on the campaign to "Free Britney" Spears. Fans believe the 38-year-old star is being kept prisoner against her will by her father - even though she has said in a video that she is doing "fine".
