A television station is a civilian institution protected under international humanitarian law. The international community, including international human rights organizations, must independently investigate the drone strike on Tigray Television, ensure accountability for any violations committed by the regime of Abiy Ahmed, and demand protection for journalists and civilian institutions.

The genocidal Abiy Ahmed regime struck Tigray TV station with drone and also damaged a nearby school, called Merciful Paradise Academy. The war on Tigray started in 2020, continued by other means since 2022, and recently schools, aid trucks, and civilians have been targets.
This is the handiwork of someone who intentionally blocked humanitarian aid (food & medicine) from reaching the ppl of #Tigray. As a result > 500,000 died of starvation& illness in #Tigray . A multitude of #Oromos#Amhara & other #Ethiopians have perished. Acts with impunity!
#EthiopiaWatch🇪🇹: Last week, PM Abiy's government suspended Tigrai TV "indefinitely." This week, phone and internet service across Tigray have gone dark.
This is the handiwork of a Nobel Peace laureate.
WELCOME TO CENSORSHIP IN ETHIOPIA.
There are rumours that #Tigray's leadership is handing over the former commander of #TDF & former President of Tigray to #Eritrea. I hope this is a propoganda of the enemies of #Tigray. Such an action is not only burtal but will damage the unity of Tigrayans. Don't do it!
In the 1990's USA sided with the of ppl of Kosovo& Bosnia during their trials&tribulation.Why not do the same now for the peace loving people of #Tigray who have being going through the same suffering.Whynot side with the suffering & theirprotector #TDF@SenatorRisch@CoryBooker
For USA's Shuttlediplomacy in Ethiopia to be effective & just, they should work on returning the ethnically cleansed ppl of westernTigray who were kicked out of their home & are now suffering in other regions of #Tigray, with their protector #TDF.

"But by his own admission"? General Migbey says on this clip, he had good businesses, went to vacation to Dubai and the USA. Portraying as if he admitted robbing Ethiopia's and Tigray's taxpayers, is classic example of disinformation to defame #TDF's hero & deceive Ethiopians
📌 So the man has been robbing the #Ethiopia#Tigray tax payers blind for decades to amess immense wealth
~ Multiple manufacturing plants
~Import export company
~ Multiple rental properties in #AddisAbaba and #Dubai
~ Family vacations every year to America.
This is not revealed through investigation, but by his own admission, in a lengthy interview he has given to a party owned media outlet just yesterday.
Apparently, when he thought that he'd lose his ill gotten wealth, he duped thousands of youth in #Tigray and many of us in diaspora that he needed to become a warlord for the sake of "the people". And he still wants more to die for him.
No one, NOT EVEN ONE should have lost their lives for these criminals.
Ethiopia: After several defeats of ENDF troops, waves of strategic drones have been deployed across the Amhara region, targeting civilians. They are being used like grenades
Some are asking why I wrote my appeal to peace in Amharic. I chose Amharic as it is the primary working language of Ethiopia and widely understood. Including all five working languages - Tigrigna, Amharic, Afaan Oromo, Somali, and Afar - would be beneficial. Here you go…
ጦርነት ትርፉ ሞት፣ ጥፋት፣ መፈናቀልና ረሃብ ብቻ ነው! ፖለቲካዊ መፍትሄ ሁሌም አለ። እውነተኛ ጀግኖች ሰላምን ይመርጣሉ። ለሰላም ዕድል እንስጥ! 🕊️

Courage for Peace.
Peace is the best medicine.
Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus
They killed us, they massacred our people, they ethnically cleansed our entire population from one-third of our territories, they raped and gang-raped more than a quarter of a million of our women, they destroyed our infrastructure and economy, they attacked our artifacts and historical legacy, they besieged us for two years and denied us basic humanitarian aid from donors; and yet they are trying to tell us who did what and to what extent, excluding themselves.
We will use their words as evidences but not their verdict on one another.
Ethiopian government, Eritrean government, and the Amhara forces led by the regional government are perpetrators of Tigray Genocide.
This is a fact. Accountability will be what we will fight throughout our lifetimes and beyond, for generations to come.
