As Ethiopian and Eritrean forces intensify their offensive in #Tigray, collective inaction is no longer an option, key actors need to change tact and use all tools at their disposal to protect civilians at risk of further atrocities https://t.co/6BEpKPMc1h
The United States launched an atrocity prevention strategy this year, after the Elie Wiesel Atrocity Prevention law passed in 2019. Meanwhile mass killing and atrocities unfold for the last 2 years in #Ethiopia. Paper and laws mean very little.
State Dept says Ethiopia received Iranian Mojaher-6 military drones in 2021, in violation of UNSC Resolution 2231.
Transfer was made last summer, @StateDeputySpox says.
Timeline aligns with Tigray rebel offensive that led to large scale gains against govt forces before rollback
Civilians that have endured a callous siege imposed by the Ethiopian regime & a deadly man-made famine for over a year are now being exterminated at light speed. @POTUS, @Europarl_EN & UNSC should immediately impose targeted sanctions + an arms embargo both on #Ethiopia & 🇪🇷.
In one week, the US has confirmed that both #Ethiopia and #Russia have bought Iranian drones, but US is only threatening Russia with sanctions, and not Ethiopia, even though both bought them illegally for use against civilians. A shocking double standard. https://t.co/COBqofWjrZ
Efrem, 1 yr infant admitted with SAM to #AyderHospital desperately looks for food.
Civilians who have no agency in the war including children are paying the cost of the #TigraySiege.
BBC has broadcasted the horrors of the Siege.

This #PFDJ#Eritrea-style poster by the admin of Arada subcity of Addis Ababa #Ethiopia calls every resident to take part in a protest this weekend against sanctions and warns that residents will not get any government services if they do not participate in the protest.
#Iran is supplying deadly drones to not just #Putin, but also the #Ethiopian military – in blatant violation of the @UN Security Council Resolution. Countless innocent civilians in #Ukraine & #Tigray are being murdered at the hands of the Iranian regime & it must end.
At Washington Square Park in NYC. I ran in to @tristatetegaru who are a group of #Tigray|ans who are begging for the international community to help their family trapped in a two year siege and family members are suffering.

The first round of high-stakes “peace talks” will begin tomorrow morning in South Africa as the allied genocidal Ethiopian + Eritrean forces continue to invade Tigray & massacre its people indiscriminately.
Due to the siege in #Tigray, Ethiopia, many people have died of starvation, man made famine & lack of access to essential health care in past 2 years. Many dying incl, Children due to daily carpet bombing by Eritrean and Ethiopian forces. We need peace & safe humanitarian access.
This morning, I joined the Montgomery County Sister Cities for a silent humanitarian walk in solidarity and a call for peace worldwide.
I stand with our Ethiopian community as we continue to call out at stand against the genocide in Tigray.
According to sources, the team representing Tigray is led by the two official negotiators, Mr. Getachew Reda & general Tsadkan Gebretensae & 4~5 additional experts have reportedly joined them for technical support.
