Isaias Afwerkis regim har i över 35 år styrt Eritrea genom rädsla, repression och total kontroll. Utan konstitution, fri press eller rättssäkerhet lever människor under obestämd militärtjänst, godtyckliga fängslanden och försvinnanden. Fallen med #DawitIsaak och #Ciham Ali Abdu symboliserar regimens brutalitet. Hundratusentals eritreaner har tvingats i exil för att fly ett system som berövar människor deras frihet, värdighet och framtid. Eritreanska folket förtjänar frihet, rättvisa och ett liv utan rädsla #BlueRevolution #RegimeChangelnEritrea #EBRF @martinschibbye https://t.co/JLZd8jgQ6f

Iseyas Afeworki is the root cause of so much pain in the Horn of Africa and all Eritrean suffering. The continued imprisonment of #Swedish journalist #DawitIsaak and #American citizen child #Ciham Ali Abdu and all #Eritrean citizens demands global attention, accountability and real action. Silence and engagement without accountability only prolongs injustice. #FreeThemAll #BlueRevolution #EBRF @POTUS @ForeignPolicy @bergersus @TiborPNagyJr @mrubin1971 @SenTedCruz @BradSherman @Sverigesriksdag @MariaStenergard

Important reporting from one of the world’s most repressive countries. Engagement can be positive, but it must come with serious conditions and follow-through. Dawit Isaak is still not free. @GLALegalDefense @TheRWCHR @MehariMeng53005 @HostageAid @bergersus @RSF_RUG @PENsweden

The cases of #Swedish citizen journalist #DawitIsaak and #US citizen child #Ciham Ali Abdu are stark reminders of the human cost of silence. Any engagement with #Eritrea must prioritize justice and accountability for this inhumane – no normalization, their freedom and answers for all those who have disappeared. #FreeThemAll #BlueRevolution #EBRF @POTUS @StateDept @washingtonpost @mrubin1971 @TiborPNagyJr @SenTedCruz @SenateGOP

Eritrea is one of the world’s most repressive dictatorships, with a deeply troubling human rights record. The regime continues to unlawfully detain & forcibly disappear innocent civilians. Among them are Swedish-Eritrean journalist Dawit Isaak, the world’s longest-imprisoned journalist, & American-Eritrean Ciham Ali, wrongfully detained at just 15 & now 29. In recent weeks, U.S. & EU envoys have visited Eritrea & met with government officials. A senior U.S. envoy has also held talks with Eritrean leaders amid rumors of lifting sanctions. @POTUS @Europarl_EN @SwedishPM, do not legitimize repression. No deals, no normalization, no lifting sanctions until US & EU political prisoners are freed & the disappeared are accounted for. This is a decisive moment, please use your leverage now to #FreeThemAll! #FreeDawit #FreeCihamAli @SweMFA @AmnestySverige @amnesty @pressfreedom @RSF_inter @FreeDawit @pen_int @PEN_Ertra @TheRWCHR @LantosFndn @RSF_RUG @Tunback @bergersus @UNHumanRights @UN_HRC @JasonPoblete @Danait4 @BietelhemI @KurdoBaksi @esayasisaak @Edelstam @SecRubio @aboehler @StateSPEHA @WhiteHouse @StateDept @HouseForeignGOP @HouseForeign @saayEritrea

The case of #Ciham Ali Abdu exposes the extreme repression exercised by the #Eritrean regime—even against children. No government should have the power to make a young girl disappear into a secret prison, stripping her of her voice, her future, and her basic rights. This is a stark reminder that such abuses are not isolated—they reflect a system that rules through fear and silence. The world must continue to speak out and demand accountability— no one should have to endure this. Urging swift action to bring her home. #FreeCihamAli #BlueRevolution #EBRF #RegimeChangelnEritrea @aboehler @StateSPEHA @WhiteHouse @StateDept @HouseForeignGOP @HouseForeign @mrubin1971 @TiborPNagyJr @CmaDawit @UN_HRC @AJEnglish @BBCWorld @washingtonpost @POTUS @SenateForeign @SenateGOP

Ciham Ali, an Eritrean-American marked her 29th birthday behind bars. She was just 15 years old when she was kidnapped & forcibly disappeared in Eritrea. She has spent almost half her life in secret detention without charge, without trial & without any contact with her family. She was a child who vanished into Eritrea’s prison system. Today, she is an adult who has not known freedom since she was 15. We call on @SecRubio to prioritize her case & work toward her immediate release. @POTUS, if anyone can help end this nightmare, it is you. Please #FreeCihamAli @aboehler @StateSPEHA @WhiteHouse @StateDept @HouseForeignGOP @HouseForeign @saayEritrea

You nailed it @afric_insde #Eritrean regime pick & choose when it suits ‘dual citizenship not allowed’ when it comes to #Ciham Ali US citizen jailed at 15. Dawit Isaak disappeared Swedish citizen. Diaspora athletes welcomed to wear the flag represent as National team. Hypocrisy isn’t policy in #PFDJ it’s the system. #NomorePFDJTerror @TiborPNagyJr @JMichael_Smith @KjetilTronvoll @EvaMariaHall

#Update: US says it has limited ability to assist dual nationals detained in Eritrea. The United States has warned it has limited ability to assist dual nationals detained in Eritrea, citing the Eritrean regimes refusal to recognize dual citizenship, as concerns persist over cases involving U.S.-Eritrean detainees. The U.S. State Department says Eritrean authorities treat individuals holding both U.S. and Eritrean nationality solely as Eritrean citizens, restricting Washington’s capacity to provide consular assistance. “Dual U.S.-Eritrean citizens are considered Eritrean nationals by the Eritrean regime,” the department states in its travel guidance, adding that this “limits our ability to provide consular services.” Human rights groups and official records point to several cases involving individuals with U.S. ties detained in Eritrea. Ciham Ali Abdu, a U.S. citizen, was arrested in 2012 at the age of 15 while attempting to leave Eritrea and has been held incommunicado since, according to Amnesty International. Aster Yohannes, who had lived in the United States, was detained at Asmara airport in December 2003 after returning to the country. Her whereabouts remain unknown. Earlier cases include Eritrean employees of the U.S. Embassy, such as Ali Alamin and Kiflom Ghebremichael, arrested on Oct. 11, 2001 and held without charge, according to U.S. government statements. Additional arrests of embassy-linked staff were reported in 2005, including Fitwi Gezae and Biniam Girmay, though details remain limited. Rights groups say detainees in Eritrea are often held without charge or trial, with families denied information about their whereabouts. In the case of Ciham Ali Abdu, Eritrean authorities have rejected her U.S. citizenship status and have not disclosed details of her detention, according to advocacy groups and former officials. The Eritrean regime has not publicly commented on individual detention cases and has historically defended such actions as matters of national sovereignty. Eritrea has long been criticized by international organizations for arbitrary detention practices and restrictions on civil liberties. For dual nationals, the lack of recognition of dual citizenship creates a legal grey area that effectively blocks foreign diplomatic intervention, leaving detainees with little external recourse. The U.S. State Department continues to advise American citizens of Eritrean origin to carefully consider the risks before traveling to the country.
