Despite a 'peace agreement', civilians in #Tigray & other regions continue to endure war crimes & crimes against humanity. Govt must refrain from violations of international law & the IC must maintain scrutiny of the situation in #Ethiopia.

___
Hunger strikes districts in Eastern Tigray including Sewha Saesie.
Birhane Abay, Administrator, says the death of 67 people has been officially recorded so far in six vicinities in the the district.
Residents, children and elderly we spoke also witness the suffering they’re enduring.
Children, compelled to excavate fruits known as ኩዕንቲ (Quienti) beneath farmlands, share the heartbreaking impact on their education due to the absence of daily meals.
They say this has darkened thier aspirations and made them halt visiting schools as they have no daily meal .
Kahsa, an elderly women we met while collecting Quinti with her pregnant daughter and three grandchldren reveals she is worried about the kids and her pregnant daughter who couldn't get anything to be eaten .
Lactating and pregnat mothers in the vicinity of Geblen ,Sewha Saesie ,also add they are suffering from lack of medical suppilies as governmental and non governmental organizations continue to give them deaf ear .
Elderlies Priest Basha Desta and Abeba,who lived together for more than sixty years, also say they are enduring immense challengs as the result of the hunger they have never experienced in thier "entire life ".
Abeba adds, in addition, to the drought that exacerbated thier living condition, Eritrean forces had looted thier foods while they were at home as they can't move.
The residents in the Geblen vicinity also add they are cut off from infrastructure and couldn't access medicine ,potable water and food staffs fast .
The bare farmlands on the ground witness the failure in product for three and more years .
The farmers say they couldn’t collect thier products as they couldn't receive rain for three consecutive rain seasons .
The residents desperately call aid agencies, regional and federal authorities to double efforts on life-saving assistances.
@SolomonBerheR reports from Edaga Hamus, Eastern Tigray.
Unfortunately, the violence in Israel and Gaza is not unparalleled. Not even close. Secretary General Guterres must have a short memory - over 500,000 have died in the conflict in #Tigray and Northern Ethiopia since 2020, the vast majority of which have been civilians. (1/2)
Famine in Abergele
"Abergele, Atsbi and Raya are the most drought affected areas of Tigray and need special attention to save lives."
@UN's @WFP and @StateDept's @USAID have halted distribution of humanitarian aid to #Tigray since March 2023.

📢 Breaking: Former #BBC journalist Desta GebreMedhin has been reportedly detained in the notorious '06' prison. This follows his recent report on a closed meeting involving Tigray high-level officials. Concerns rise over press freedom and journalist safety in #Tigray.
3rd November - it has been exactly one year since the Petoria Peace Accords were signed, putting an end to two years of Civil War in #Tigray.
A year on more than a million displaced people have still not been able to return home and half the population are reported going hungry
Many schools are occupied by displaced people who are still unable to return home and are living in camps. This vulnerable population is in addition to ex-combatants and victims of sexual violence affected by the trauma of the conflict who still need humanitarian support, but above all violences persist in the region;
"We also hear serious reports of forced displacement, harassment, intimidation, and killings of ethnic Tigrayans in areas that are controlled by #Eritrean Defense Forces and the #Amhara forces, unfortunately we have not been able to go to these locations to verify the reports but some of the reports we receive are credible" - Albab Tesfaye Ayalew - Director - @EthioHRC@FRANCE24 |

2nd November - #Tigray peace deal war anniversary: Humanitarian situation is ‘dire’
"It is a year since a peace deal was agreed to end the bloody conflict in Tigray, which killed hundreds of thousands. Although the peace has lasted, many people have been unable to return home as parts of the region are still occupied, by #Eritrean forces to the north and #Amhara militias in the west.
Many are displaced and in need of humanitarian assistance.
We went to Shire, in north-western Tigray, to speak to people there who are still struggling with the aftermath of the war."

⚠️ At least this is a peaceful opposition that #Tigray embraces. What about the armed extremist #Fano militia that was receiving military training in #Eritrean territory and which we now see causing the death of many victims of the #Amhara people?
Sawa (the military camp in Eritrea🇪🇷) has done something to these creatures from the north of our Tigray. The lack of social decency is alarming.
@MissEmbaye is a beautiful Tigrayan girl who cares about her community and humanity.
Eritrea🇪🇷 using the machinery it stole from Tigray for purposes that they have never thought of for the past 32 years. Development by looting. The current generation in Eritrea will go to school with looted materials, use roads built by looted materials.

Traitorous Genocider @AbiyAhmedAli wants Ethiopia to have access to the #RedSea via Eritrea's Āssab Port,
In 2019 during the planning of the Genocidal War on #Tigray, #Eritrean Genocidal Dictator Isaias Afwerki said that Abiy is the leader for the people of Ethiopia and Eritrea, will Isaias now allow Abiy's port access request, since he should take the lead?
