“He told me that the #Tigrayan identity must be eliminated. Any trace/mark of the Tigrayan identity must be removed from my womb & that has to be done with the rape," -- a #Tigrayan lady who was gang-raped by the Amhara forces.

She was told that she should obey what the Amhara Special Forces commander would tell her. “If I fail to respect the commander’s words, the Eritrean warned me, it would be risky for me and my family.”

👆this was before they gang-raped her.

When the Amhara Special Forces checked Paula’s ID card, they asked her about her ethnic identity. She replied that she is a Tigrayan ... they said, “We will make sure that you are clean of any #Tigrayan blood.”

The Eritrean troops dared to gang rape #Tigrayan women & insert heated metallic rods, nails, rocks, & other objects into the genitals of the victims. Therefore, they cannot stop at anything!

#Ashenda is a symbol of absolute freedom for #Tigrayan women & girls. But, many are in agony b/se of the genocidal actions of Ethiopia & Eritrea!

Tragically, the agony of the people of #Tigray has become the source of joy for many genocide deniers!
