#Tigray: Fighter jet seen over Mekelle for second time this week amid rising tensions
A fighter jet was seen flying over the city of Mekelle on Wednesday at around 11:37 a.m. local time, residents said, marking the second reported overflight of the city within the same week.
Such rhetoric is not just irresponsible; it echoes patterns recognized under international law as precursors to mass atrocities and genocide.
The international community must take this seriously. Silence enables escalation.

🚨 Alert: Evidence of #genocidal intent
👇 A professor serving the Govt of 🇪🇹 has publicly used the term “weed” to describe a political group -a language that dehumanizes and signals dangerous intent.

French President Macron:
Iran is a very bad regime — no discussion about that. I disagree with them on a lot of topics.
But I don’t believe that we will fix the situation just by bombings or by military operations.
Look at what happened with this type of operation in Iraq, in Afghanistan, in Libya — we never delivered. Never. Even after 20 years.
So you have to respect the sovereignty of people. If people want to change a regime, they want to react, step up, they can do so.
#Ethiopia: More than 330 IDPs reported dead in #Hitsats, 125 in #Adwa as coordinators warn of worsening humanitarian crisis
At least 333 internally displaced persons (#IDPs) have died at the Hitsats center in Tigray since May 2025 due to hunger and lack of medicine, while in Adwa 125 people have died since October 2025.
DPs and camp officials told Addis Standard that shrinking humanitarian assistance and continued new arrivals are pushing already vulnerable communities into what they describe as a life-threatening crisis, intensifying pressure on limited resources.
Displaced residents and coordinators in Hitsats say the situation has further worsened, with rising fatalities, disease outbreaks, and reduced humanitarian support.
“To speak of the conditions in Hitsats, one must see it with their own eyes,” said Abrha Mebrahtom, coordinator of the Hitsats IDP center. “Though there were good starts previously, they have now ceased. People are wasting away; people are dying.”
“We want to return to our homes,” Tekle said, warning of growing concern as the rainy season approaches and calling for observers to witness conditions firsthand.
The Commission of Inquiry on #Tigray Genocide (#CITG) cited findings from its August 2025 assessment of 92 IDP centers, including Hitsats. According to the Commission, 325 deaths occurred at Hitsats during the assessment period, primarily due to lack of food, medical care, and other basic necessities

“Iran posed no imminent threat to our nation, and it's clear that we started this war due to pressure from Israel.”
US National Counterterrorism Centre director, Joe Kent, resigns over war on Iran.

After much reflection, I have decided to resign from my position as Director of the National Counterterrorism Center, effective today.
I cannot in good conscience support the ongoing war in Iran. Iran posed no imminent threat to our nation, and it is clear that we started this war due to pressure from Israel and its powerful American lobby.
It has been an honor serving under @POTUS and @DNIGabbard and leading the professionals at NCTC.
May God bless America.
