Hani Gal Tigray

[Gillian Keegan @GillianKeegan]

Gravely concerned by escalation of fighting in #Ethiopia. The involvement of Eritrean forces will deepen the conflict and exacerbate one of the world’s worst humanitarian crises - they should leave #Tigray. UK calls on all parties to reinstate the truce and begin peace talks.

The UN's International Commission of Human Rights Experts on Ethiopia has "reasonable grounds to believe that the Federal Government and its allies have committed crimes against humanity in Tigray region. Some of these crimes are ongoing." https://t.co/RchlSTkgUM

[Kenneth Roth @KenRoth]

The Ethiopian government and its allies have denied 6 million people in Tigray "access to basic services, including electricity, internet, telecommunications, and banking for over a year....They have looted and destroyed goods indispensable for" survival. https://t.co/RchlSTkgUM

[Kenneth Roth @KenRoth]

The UN's Commission of Inquiry on Ethiopia, while finding abuses on all sides, said Ethiopian government forces had resorted to “starvation of civilians” as a tool of war and that Ethiopian and Eritrean forces were responsible for “sexual slavery." https://t.co/ZNVPSvmCrZ

The fifth drone bombing within two weeks in the capital of #Tigray, #Mekelle today, a day after #ICHREE’s report presented in #Geneva said the shelling of the city by #Ethiopia in 2020 was a crime.

Such an exhausting reminder that the world couldn’t care less about black lives and to see it for almost two years now. SO exhausting.

[Be A King @BerniceKing]

We MUST cut off the chain of #violence. The bloodshed and hunger in #Tigray are heinous crimes against #humanity.

#Tigray has been bombed, looted and starved. Now deprived of basic telecom and Internet by its neighbours. Kept in the dark, #Starlink could reconnect 6 million ppl. We ask @SpaceX to active satellites, begin service there and airdrop dishes! Help them @elonmusk!

[Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus @DrTedros]

6 million people in Tigray, Ethiopia have been under siege for over 22 months & now again are under attack by Eritrean forces. Peace is the only solution to save lives & livelihoods. We call on governments of Eritrea & Ethiopia to end the war, end the siege & work towards peace.

[Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus @DrTedros]

While world leaders are meeting at #UNGA to discuss global challenges, #Eritrea started a major offensive on #Tigray, Ethiopia. This comes after 6 million Tigrayans have been under the siege for more than 22 months. This horror must stop & health assistance allowed in.
