#Ethiopia 🇪🇹 CPJ calls on Ethiopian authorities to immediately release journalists Gobeze Sisay, Meskerem Abera, Genet Asmamaw, Dawit Begashaw, and Abay Zewdu, who have been in detention for three years awaiting trial, instead of pressuring them to admit to, and apologize for, taking part in a deadly insurgency in exchange for their freedom.
“After keeping these five journalists behind bars for years and delaying their trials, Ethiopian authorities are now trying to blackmail them into confessing to crimes that they have already denied in court,” said CPJ's Muthoki Mumo.

Call for Enhanced Public Understanding of Tourism Resources
Mr. Saleh Ali, Director General of Tourism in the Anseba Region, highlighted the significance of enhancing public understanding of tourism resources so that they can be properly preserved, passed on to future generations and utilized to contribute to the country’s economic development.
Mr. Saleh made the call during exploratory research conducted on tourism resources in the sub-zones of Geleb and Elaberet, as well as during meetings held with residents of Merat and Deki-Andu on 8 and 9 August.
The research covers the historical remains at the Rora Mensa’e fortress, where heavy fighting took place following the defeat of the Ethiopian colonial army’s ‘Nadew Iz’ in 1988; the forest and wildlife resources in the areas of Merat and Deki-Andu that are on the verge of extinction; and the red marble found in the Bielta area.
Noting that natural resources, religious sites, cultural diversity and traditions, archaeological sites and other attractions are among the country’s unique resources, Mr. Feseha Habte, Head of Research and Resource Follow-up at the Tourism Department in the Anseba Region, called for due attention to be given to indigenous trees that are on the verge of extinction, as well as to ensuring the continuity of cultural and artistic resources.
Dialogue without justice, accountability, and protection of human life is not peace—it is hypocrisy.
Ethiopia needs an end to Amhara civilian killings, kidnapping, and ethnic violence before political dialogue can have any meaning.
#Ethiopia
A national dialogue means nothing while innocent Ethiopians are being killed, kidnapped, and displaced because of their identity.
Stop the violence. Protect civilians. Then pursue genuine dialogue.
#Ethiopia@USEmbassyAddis
The main objective of the #AmharaGenocide campaign is to inform governments, human rights organizations & the international community that the Amharas have been the target of genocide for decades & to call for its recognition & immediate end. @hrw@UN@UN_HRC@ClooneyFDN@amnesty
Calling Amhara civilians “Fano” does not make them legitimate targets.
For years, Amhara communities have faced killings, displacement, abductions, and destruction in parts of Ethiopia, including Oromia and Benishangul-Gumuz.
@amnesty@UNHumanRights@hrw
Tonight 12.08.2026, let’s raise our voices for JUSTICE, ACCOUNTABILITY & RULE OF LAW in #Ethiopia
The reported killings in Abeshige must not be forgotten or buried in silence. Every civilian life matters—regardless of ethnicity or political identity
