ADDIS ABABA, Nov. 25 (Xinhua) -- The United Nations World Food Programme (WFP) on Friday said it has delivered over 2,400 metric tons of food, medical, nutrition and other lifesaving supplies to Ethiopia's Tigray region following the recent signing of a peace agreement.

The WFP said 96 trucks have transported over 2,400 metric tons of food, which is enough to feed around 170,000 people, as well as 100,000 liters of fuel into Ethiopia's conflict-affected Tigray region since November 15 when WFP resumed operations using all four reopened road corridors.
