Many Ethiopian nationals have reportedly been killed or injured in recent shootings and violent attacks in Durban and Johannesburg, South Africa. Every human life has equal value, regardless of nationality or immigration status.
We call on the South African authorities to conduct thorough, impartial investigations, hold those responsible accountable, and ensure the safety and protection of everyone living in the country.
Violence is never the answer. Justice, accountability, and respect for human rights must prevail.

The voices of Ethiopian refugees in South Africa deserve to be heard. Many continue to face uncertainty, delays, and serious humanitarian challenges while seeking safety and dignity. We call on the relevant authorities and international organizations to listen, engage, and act. Human rights belong to everyone.#EthiopianrefugeeinSA

International law guarantees protection for those fleeing persecution. Yet refugees in South Africa continue to face fear and prejudice daily. Human Rights to work with South African authorities to safeguard basic rights.

Irob Anina Civil Society will take part in the mass protests taking place in Mekelle and Geneva. These demonstrations are a unified cry for justice, dignity, and action.
For the past month, our team has been in the United States, with witnesses and victims of the conflict working in close partnership with multiple organizations and institutions. We’ve met with policymakers, advocates, and international institutions to elevate the very same demands that will be at the heart of these protests.
We are calling for the immediate and safe return of all displaced Tigrayans. Families have spent five rainy seasons in makeshift shelters. This must end. People must go home.
We demand full, unhindered access to humanitarian aid. Communities in need cannot survive on promises.
We demand accountability from all responsible actors the Tigray Interim Administration, the Tigray People’s Liberation Front, the Federal government of Ethiopia, and international stakeholders. Those who signed the Pretoria agreement and other relevant frameworks must act. Silence is complicity.
We urge all civil society groups, justice seekers, and global allies to join us. Stand in solidarity.

Health professionals from Tigray, supported by Irob Anina and in partnership with @OmnaTigray, had the opportunity to participate in a community forum in Washington, DC, this past Saturday. This was a chance for them to share their experiences from occupied areas, including Irob, Gulomekada, and Western Tigray and unoccupied areas, including central Tigray. As part of the event, they were recognized for their efforts in caring for the people of Tigray under the most challenging of conditions.
We would like to thank the DC community and all who attended the event.
Pope Francis @Pontifex stood with the people of #Tigray in their darkest hour, offering prayers, peace, and unwavering compassion.
We are deeply saddened by his passing. May he rest in peace.
Rest in peace, Pope Francis. To say that He was a voice to the voiceless all over the world is an understatement. Close to home, he was one of the few voices who spoke and prayed for the people of Tigray when many conveniently chose deafening silence.
