3/3 Hope is scarce, and loads have fled under coercion. I can see Mekelle is bare now. Our youth and future have been nicked, leaving us with invisible scars .
1/3 We've been through proper hell since the tigray war broke out. The years haven't just passed; they've weighed us down. Even then, life was chaotic, we've been trying to pick up the pieces from all the trauma.

2/3 And yet again, second round of war is looming. Don't know when it will hit. Could be today, tomorrow or the next; only that it's close. Every morning feels borrowed, every night heavy with uncertainty.
In Tigray, there is a saying “ሕማቕ መገላገሊ; መቃተሊ" which means “A bad peacemaker (mediator) leads to people killing each other”.
We are forced to witness such devastation and we don’t even know what is to come. We are robbed of our past, present and our future!
What our families are living through is an untold siege in Tigray. People are lining up in banks begging to withdraw their hard-earned money. Those who can withdraw money are allowed to withdraw only $5 (1,000 birr) after lining up in front of the bank all day
I would never understand why these politicians keep showing up on religious holidays, creating commotion, and with the desire to show their importance. If anything, they should be banned from any religious and social holidays. n/n
