I call on the European Union and NATO member states to recognize Tigray and support a peaceful path to self-determination. 🇪🇺
Tigray can become the Croatia of Ethiopia: a people seeking the right to determine their own political future, build democratic institutions, live in security and develop in peace.
My message is simple: PEOPLES, NOT EMPIRES.
Europe and the transatlantic community should engage directly with Tigray, protect civilians, support peaceful democratic decision-making and be prepared to recognize a sovereign Tigray.
TIGRAY — SELF-DETERMINATION • PEACE • SECURITY • PROSPERITY

U.S. Ambassador Ervin Massinga stayed silent as Abiy Ahmed’s drones struck 20 times, destroying civilian infrastructure & killing dozens. He condemned only after resistance. He is the right hand of genocidal criminals, betraying American values. Remove him now. @SFRCdems@POTUS
NEW | The Ethiopian federal government extended the mandate of the Tigray Interim Administration (TIA) by one year, averting a flashpoint for the immediate resumption of war.
The impasse with the Pretoria peace deal remains unaddressed, however, and the risk of clashes remains high. 🧵⬇️
If the Ethiopian government restarts hostilities against #Tigrai and at the same time, it tries to invade #Eritrea to regain direct access to the Red Sea, it will be the end of #Ethiopia.
If farmers in #Tigray are not allowed to farm this season, people will starve.
We cannot wait until there is mass starvation to start talking about this.
If the farmlands of Tigray become a battlefield, the children, pregnant women, and the elderly will suffer most.
Subject: Standing with Shire in the Fight for National Existence
Dear @_AfricanUnion@UN@EU_Commission@POTUS@StateDept@UN_HRC@IGADsecretariat@UNRefugeesUK@WhiteHouse@UNGeneva@UKParliament@USEmbassyAddis@HouseForeign
I am writing to bring to your attention the ongoing protests in the city of Shire, which have arisen in response to the recent decision made by the Ethiopia Federal Council. Citizens there are rallying fiercely under the banner of "National Unity for Sovereignty!" and "The Fight for National Existence!"
This movement reflects deep concerns about the future of national identity and sovereignty. The people of Shire are determined to be heard and are standing united in their pursuit of these fundamental rights.
Your awareness and support regarding this critical situation would mean a great deal. It is a pivotal moment for the community and the nation as a whole.
Thank you for taking the time to consider this important issue.
Warm regards,
@BerhanuAsres
Tigray Rises Up Against Ethiopia’s Redistricting Move
Hundreds of thousands across #Tigray took to the streets, denouncing the House of Federation’s unconstitutional & belligerent move to redraw Tigray’s electoral boundaries—a decision described as continuation of the genocide.
Ethiopia: After a week of sustained drone and air strikes on the city of Debre Tabor by the Ethiopian military, a fresh large-scale attack against the nearby strategic town of Woreta following its capture by Fano forces. The strike reportedly hit civilian targets
#Ethiopia#Tigray Latest Situation:
Fighting is reported to have been ongoing since yesterday in Raya region in southern Tigray, according to local Media, who spoke to residents.
The reports say that the fighting is between Tigray regional and federal forces, supported by forces reportedly under the command of the region’s former president, Getachew Reda.
The fighting is reported to be taking place in districts close to the Afar border. Sources on the ground also said that the fighting is still continuing for unknown reason.
‼️In Ethiopia 🇪🇹, the war in Tigray has just resumed. The last one (2020-2022) had caused 600,000 deaths...
This is an entire regional chain reaction being triggered, as the Tigray conflict is linked to Sudan, Somalia, Eritrea, Libya, Chad...
TPLF forces have completely taken over today Raya Alamata Region in Southern #Ethiopia according to FANO, which was surprised by the confusion that occurred in the Ethiopian military forces when they learned that the Tigrays were approaching.
Ethiopian forces fled Raya and Alamata after they were approached by TPLF TDF forces today, who were pulling artillery and vehicles from Tigray,
Raya was occupied by the Ethiopian Federal Forces (ENDF) and the Raya Forces militia, which supported Getachew Reda, the former president who was expelled from Tigray in 2025, Getachew Reda is a native of Raya Region,
Tigray forces are now heading towards Raya-Kobbo area, which is near Amhara region .
#TPF fighters advanced from Afar to Bala town in southern Tigray today. After ENDF's withdrawal from southern Tigray yesterday, ENDF is opening a new front from Afar to counter TDF's attack today.
🔥 THE BERLIN SYSTEM IS COLLAPSING 🔥
The so-called Ethiopian state—an artificial structure imposed by the Berlin colonial order, has once again been forced back onto the battlefield by the very peoples it has oppressed for generations.
This comes after the total defeat of the Berlin system across Amhara, where the people have risen, liberated their territories, and shattered colonial control on every front. The illusion of a unified colonial Ethiopia is unraveling before the world’s eyes.
Rejected across Somalistate, Amhara, Oromia, Afar, Gambella, Benishangul, SNNP, Harar and beyond. Disintegration is inevitable.
At this critical juncture, the Tigrayan liberation forces have once again taken up arms to protect their people and to finish the long-delayed birth of an independent nation. The masses are mobilizing. The colonial order is breaking apart. Liberation cannot be stopped. ✊#BerlinSystem #EndBerlinSystem #Africa #SelfDetermination #Tigray #TigrayLiberation #EndColonialRule #PeoplesResistance #EastAfrica #LiberationCannotBeStopped
Of all regions in Ethiopia most eligible to be de facto state. It is Tigray. Which is a shame that recent skirmishes with federal forces isnt about their independence but just another round of fighting about contested territories.
Ethiopia has interfered in Somalia for years. It’s time Somalia responds!
Proposal to the Government of Somalia:
1. Open a diplomatic office for Tigray in Mogadishu
2. Formally invite Ethiopian opposition groups to Mogadishu
3) create passport for Tigray and recognize it
