🚨 #Amhara security forces & officials in #Ethiopia’s Western #Tigray Zone, have carried out an ethnic cleansing campaign against Tigrayans in the area, amounting to crimes against humanity & war crimes.
New @amnesty & @hrw report: https://t.co/4ZEhjflDwt
Does Sweden also take actions to bring accountability for the crimes including the ethnic cleansing happened for the last 17 months in western #Tigray?
#TigrayCantWait
Sweden welcomes positive signals from Gov of #Ethiopia & #Tigrayan authorities for humanitarian access to #Tigray & cessation of hostilities. Full and unrestricted access is urgently needed. We encourages parties to build on this development for a ceasefire & political solution.
In light of the @amnesty and @hrw report about ethnic cleansing in Western Tigray, this news is even more suspicious. The Ethiopian and Amhara governments were notified that a report would be released and came up with this to either remove evidence or try to shift the narrative.
NEW from @hrw and @amnesty: In Western Tigray, widespread abuses against the Tigrayan population amount to crimes against humanity and ethnic cleansing.
We are an association based in Sweden and we mainly work on human right advocacy related to the genocide happening on Tigrayans in Ethiopia. Please follow us on this and other platforms. 🙏
@AnnLinde Why does Sweden is delaying or not accepting #Tigrayan asylum seekers while the mass arrest, torture, death and harassment of #Tigrayans in #Ethiopia for their ethnicity is bold enough for the wolrd to see?
This is a route that more victims of the #Tigray genocide explore and place their suffering on record - even if @ACHPR cant do much or will be hindered to do anything meaningful by #Ethiopia https://t.co/GNVaHTa93K
AU calls on US, EU to "lift unilateral coercive sanctions on Eritrea"
Isn't Eritrea biggest destabiliser in Horn, largest 'exporter' of desperate youth, orchestrator of Tigray war, instructor-in-chief of 'authoritarian learning' for fragile states like Somalia, Ethiopia?
DAY 323
“Conflict in Tigray & Northern #Ethiopia gets 2 mentions in @JoeBiden's #UNGA speech: 1- Famine 2- Human Rights Violations.
More than any other conflict in MENA region, just as US prepares for sanctions if no ceasefire comes in weeks.” @Joyce_Karam#TigrayCantWait
B/General Yasin Mohammed clearly fancies attacking churches. Investigation is needed to figure how many of the attacked #churches in #Tigray he is responsible for.
1) The Mai Kadra massacre was committed using machetes
2) Machetes are under embargo in Ethiopia -- You're not allowed to import them.
3) That machete appears to be new. It still has a bright yellow sticker and unblemished handle or blade.
"I was arrested for three days for being Tigrian. They hit my hand hard that it cracked open and bleed. They insulted me, tortured me. I went out ብዋሕስ [Bail] yesterday. I paid 700 Birr."💔
A text I received this morning, from my friend in Addis.
#TigrayMassArrest@hrw
I’m committed to the people of #Tigray. I don’t care about any party or entity in Tigray or #Ethiopia. Entities & leaders come & go, countries rise & fall — the people remain. As an American of Tigrayan origin, I’m principally concerned how the U.S. responds to #TigrayGenocide.
