“Sometimes when you’re in a dark place, you think you have been buried, but actually you have been planted” Never again, will I take Tigray for granted ❤️
María, Tedros, and Yohannes dedicated their lives to helping those most in need.
Five years after their deaths, we continue to demand answers and accountability, and the protection of humanitarian workers everywhere.
The World couldn't say enough on the heinous crimes being committed by #Sudan's #RSF, backed by #UAE & #Ethiopia. Children, mothers, & elderly innocent Sudanese civilians are indiscriminately being killed. Our Sudanese brothers, we feel your pain. @marcorubio
@GetachewAssefa_ Lidetu has been complaining that Tegaru r dragging their feet in joining his movt. He is inviting Genocidal Andargatchew & Genocidal Neamene to the table. This table of discussion is neither Justice seeking nor Truce & Reconciliation.There is no room for the wounded! @reyotmedia
As painful and nauseating as it is, I think it's good that more people are finally admitting what this war is really about. The question of why they stayed silent and actively participated knowing what's going on can come later — first, the truth must come out.
Children suffered record levels of violence in conflict zones in 2024, UN report shows. @ingerashing@save_children said sexual violence “must be treated with the same gravity as guns and bombs”.

During the conflict in Tigray, Ethiopia, that began on 4 Nov 2020, troops supporting the federal government have committed widespread rape against ethnic Tigrayan women and girls.
Today is the Int’l Day for the Elimination of Sexual Violence in Conflict.
Nearly five years ago, Ethiopian & Eritrean forces launched a genocidal war on Tigray—marked by horrific human rights violations, including the systematic use of sexual violence against women & girls. 1/n
Survivors were abducted, mutilated & held in military camps as sex slaves.
Many of them perished in homes without food, in war-ravaged health centers stripped of supplies & in silence—alone, without care, justice, or even acknowledgment. 2/n
Countless remain in limbo—confined to underfunded IDP camps or scattered as refugees, unable to return home. For them, the war hasn’t ended. They continue to bear the physical & emotional wounds of the violence, neglect & abandonment. 3/n
Today, they joined other displaced people across Tigray in a public protest, demanding safe & immediate return to their ancestral lands.
Their voices carry years of pain & unwavering resolve. They must be heard. They must go home with the dignity+justice they’ve long been denied.
