General Birhanu Jula

...In another interview, the spokesman of the ENDF said that the only combatants, not civilians, were struck in an airstrike this week. He explained that the combatants in the town of Togogua were dressed in civilian clothes. According to the spokesperson, the combatants were not inside the market but had gathered in the town to commemorate the anniversary of the bombing of another town in Tigray, Hawzen, in 1988. The ENDF’s Chief of Staff, General Birhanu Jula also corroborated the statement by saying, “The airstrike didn’t take place at noon, it was carried out at 4 PM.” he said, adding “Market is not open at this hour.” Refuting the claims of civilian casualties Birhanu said, “The operation was aimed at a bandit group led by an individual called Migbey.”

How the attack unfolded

Shortly after 13:00 local time on 22 June, a teenage boy was playing a game at one of the shops at the market when he heard a loud bang.

"I rushed out and saw a lot of people lying on the ground injured," he told the BBC. "My leg was hurt as I ran to escape the area."

The blast had occurred in the market area of Togoga town - about 25km (15 miles) north-west of the region's capital, Mekelle.

Speaking to the BBC Tigrinya service, witnesses and victims have corroborated the time and describe a busy scene prior to the attack.

We've traced a social media post from Tigrayan opposition official Hailu Kebede referring to the incident at 13:37 local time.
