@yonast98 Staged. No way EBC would release a raw footage without editing if it’s real.

@Cmp5qk @KSATMaryRom Right, in OT they would have had a better chance given two of Knick’s’ rebounders had 5 fouls already

@JegnaAnbessa Not true at all. Nether Tigist Yilma nor Wubeshaw was part of the military music band travelled to Eritrea that lead to the fatal attack by Shabia.

@solassefa I would say spend moderately. They may not enjoy life in their thirties as much as they do at a very young age.

@GGProudET @gebreyesgodana 6 month is not enough time to transition a factory to something else. You can’t just transition, there is a process, new license, permit and etc. With the current bureaucratic nightmare and high level corruption, it requires more than a year.

@txrsasser @theblaze None official ID , it can be used to pay taxes. The IRS requires everyone legal or not to pay taxes from any source of income.

@SammyEth Btw, it seems more albums have been released since 2016 EC than the entire 5+ years prior to that. What could be the rationale?

@EliasMeseret You transposed the numbers. It should read only 8.4% passed.

We have lost over 68 of our fellow citizens!

Even though this is a major tragedy that should warrant a National Day of Mourning, the only statement so far has been a short post by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs on its Facebook page—and not even on the main page.

This heartbreaking disaster has been reported by more than 30 international media outlets.

Let's honor their lives by doing the work that brings real change—by challenging the vanity projects and asking for more work to be done that could change the youths lives.

May their souls rest in peace, our dear compatriots!

@GetachewSS 30% penalties is huge and supposed to be a dealbreaker. I guess some folks don’t even consider there would be a situation they need to cancel these contracts, but just sign them believing they’re in it all way through.

@GetachewSS @World_Citzen I heard this sometime ago and got furious as if it happened to myself. How the courts allow this is mind boggling.

She’s just 14. From the mountains of Bale. Born with a major congenital heart defect that kept her from even attending school—watching from the sidelines as life moved on without her.

But today… her heart has been successfully repaired. And now, for the first time, she’s ready to start school.

This is not just healing a heart. This is changing a destiny.

This is the kind of impact that moves souls. That reminds us why pediatric cardiac surgery isn’t just medicine—it’s a miracle in motion.

Thank you to the incredible team at @HeartAEthiopia and our partners at The Children’s Heart Fund of Ethiopia for making this miracle real.

One heart. One life at a time. But we’re leaving no heart behind. ✊🏾❤️

GERD, Gaza, and the Silence of Ethiopia’s Foreign Ministry

Two days ago, Egypt’s President Sisi publicly thanked Donald Trump for backing Egypt’s position on the Nile. Meanwhile, Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu has met Trump three times this year, including two Oval Office sessions in just 24 hours.
And Ethiopia’s Foreign Minister? Silent. Absent from every diplomatic arena where this regional power game is unfolding.
Let’s be clear: when I say “silence,” I don’t mean a lack of speech. I mean a failure to do the actual job of diplomacy — to represent, to negotiate, and to defend Ethiopia’s national interests on the global stage.

Should Ethiopia Respond to Trump Directly? No. But That’s Not the Point.
The Foreign Minister doesn’t need to respond to every public comment. But he must engage the real levers of influence — indirectly, through Israel, the UAE, and U.S. institutions. Instead, we’ve seen long stretches of inaction. And while Ethiopia remains disengaged, others are shaping outcomes that will directly affect us.
In 2020, Ethiopia made a critical mistake by accepting Trump’s mediation. Today, we’re paying the price not for weak infrastructure — GERD is nearly complete — but for weak diplomacy. The silence of just one or two officials can compromise an entire nation’s leverage.
________________________________________

Let’s Flip the Scenario: What If Ethiopia Is the Bargaining Chip?
Let’s ask a serious geopolitical question:
What if Netanyahu is helping Egypt pressure Ethiopia on GERD — in exchange for Rafah cooperation?
It’s plausible. Consider the alignment of motives:
• Israel seeks to relocate Palestinians from Gaza.
• Egypt controls the Rafah crossing.
• Trump wants a “solution” and a Nobel Prize moment.
•In return, Egypt could ask Trump for leverage over Ethiopia — securing water concessions on GERD once and for all.

This isn’t a conspiracy. It’s geopolitical logic.

________________________________________
The Hard Facts
1. Trump–Netanyahu Meetings
• Netanyahu has visited Trump three times in 2025 (Reuters, Al Jazeera).
• One visit included two meetings in the same day.
• Their agenda? Gaza, Iran, and broader regional coordination.
2. Israel’s “10th City” Plan in Rafah
• A proposed “humanitarian city” to relocate Palestinians.
• Critics see it as a cover for mass displacement.
• Egypt’s cooperation is key to implementing it.
3. Egypt’s Leverage
• Egypt may trade access to Rafah in exchange for U.S. pressure on Ethiopia.
• GERD becomes part of a larger negotiation, without Ethiopia at the table.
4. Ethiopia’s Absence
• No public engagement with Israel, the UAE, or the U.S. on GERD diplomacy.
• Ethiopia is invisible in this high-stakes reconfiguration.
________________________________________
What Should Ethiopia’s Foreign Minister Be Doing?
Instead of engaging international actors, Foreign Minister Gedion Timotheos is:
• Delivering speeches at domestic forums,
• Chairing the National Dialogue Commission (a domestic body),
• Performing duties traditionally handled by the Ministry of Interior.
This is Ethiopia’s top diplomat — not a domestic spokesperson.

His background is in law and justice, not diplomacy. He was publicly declared “unfit for foreign affairs” by members of Parliament before his appointment (Addis Standard), and his track record confirms those concerns.

So, the question remains: who is defending Ethiopia’s interests in Washington? In Tel Aviv? In Abu Dhabi?
________________________________________
What Ethiopia Could Be Doing
If we had a strategic foreign policy today, Ethiopia would already be:
• Engaging Israel — Trump doesn’t say no to Netanyahu.
• Leveraging the UAE — They pledged $1.4 trillion in U.S. investments and maintain influence in Trump’s circle.
• Activating allies in the U.S. — including the African diaspora, the Congressional Black Caucus, and diplomatic networks in the Horn of Africa.
Instead, we’ve ceded the battlefield — again — to Egypt.

Ethiopia Must Wake Up

This isn’t just about water.

It’s about sovereignty. Power. Survival.

If Ethiopia doesn’t stand for GERD, no one will.

The Foreign Minister’s job is not reconciliation speeches and internal meetings. It is global defense. Strategic engagement. Geopolitical positioning.

Trump, Netanyahu, and Sisi are playing chess.

Ethiopia isn’t even on the board.

If Gedion cannot lead — then he must step aside for someone who can. Because GERD is more than a dam. It is the frontline of Ethiopia’s sovereignty.

And silence is not a strategy.
