Saba shares that her two parents are both stuck in Shire, Tigray. Amidst the ongoing siege blocking all forms of communication, power and electricity, she shares that she hasn’t been able to reach them for 3 months. @MsSaba_Desta
The ink on the images of children buried in Rafah today hasn’t even dried yet and here you are meeting with members of a murderous regime. This truly is shameful and embarrassing.
Today I met a delegation of Israeli parliamentary committee of Ethiopia-Israeli friendship led by Knesset member @Moshe_solomon_ in Mekelle. The delegation is here on a three day visit to explore areas of cooperation with Ethiopia in general and Tigray in particular on agriculture, technology & emergency aid, among other things. The delegation will also meet with relevant authorities in Tigray and pay visit to parts of Tigray as part of its mission.
Seems fitting considering OUR people are currently under occupation. To align with those aggressively committing genocide must mean the amnesia kicked in a little quicker for some. How unfortunate of the IRA….
Extremely proud of @makeinjera for their unrelenting efforts to call out all necessary parties until Semhal Geberezgher was finally free. It should always be noted the weight consistent advocacy has, so I deeply thank you for what you all do.
Tigray has her children forever ♥️💛
@_fetle Your recognition of self and how far you have come in your healing is such a profound tribute to and reflection of everything that was poured into you and of you, sis. I love you and always rooting for you! You really do got this 🫶🏾♥️
My brother.
Each and every single time.
19 years today. I love you, Yohannes.
Whatever and wherever heaven is, I just know that is your home.
Rest.

We cannot, again, allow this passive framing to absolve those responsible for the crime of hunger. There is no natural dearth of food in Ethio. Or in Tigray. These are conditions manufactured & foisted upon the most vulnerable ppl on the planet, not by god, but their countrymen.
After my dad was killed in the Bosnian war, I asked to see him. I just didn't want to believe he is indeed dead.
So, similar to many children in Gaza, I saw a parent I adored and loved wrapped up in a white sheet.
Let me tell you what it does to a child. 🧵
#NamrudTessema is not just a name. He is my friend, confidant, a beautiful father, critical community member and just overall amazing human. It is extremely unlike him to be gone this long. We ask you help amplify so that we may bring him home safely to his family. To us 🤲🏾🙏🏾
Mercer, WI: It’s been over a month now since the disappearance of 46y/o Namrud Tessema & his family is in need of answers. He was last seen on foot in the area of Maple Ridge Rd wearing a dark colored flannel, blue jeans & no shoes. Please share to #HelpUsFindUs#NamrudTessema
One more week of @USAID/@WFP's aid suspension in #Tigray since March and Ethiopia since June.
God bless those who are starving and have starved.
No more excuses for failing the people of #Tigray. After 8 months, everything should be in place to restart aid at the speed of life.
