They raped her womb to “cleanse the bloodline.”
They branded her body as a battlefield.
This was not “conflict-related sexual violence.”
It was genocide by rape, designed to erase identity, culture, and future.

“Whether you scream or not, no one is coming.”
Tigrayan women were raped for months by armed men—Eritrean & Ethiopian troops—while the world watched in silence.
This is not war. This is genocide by rape.

Ethiopia and Eritrea—two sovereign states-collaborated in a coordinated campaign of extermination in Tigray.
They used rape,starvation, and ethnic cleansing as state weapons.
Two governments. One shared genocidal intent.

Both Ethiopia & Eritrea have blocked UN investigations, expelled human rights monitors, and denied mass rape allegations.
Denial is the final stage of genocide.
Silence legitimizes it.

Dear @UN@StateDept@_AfricanUnion@EU_Commission UPCOMING EVENT : Rising Risks of Conflict in the Horn of Africa Hosted by the Brookings Africa Security Initiative
As geopolitical tensions reach a boiling point in the Horn of Africa, the Brookings Institution is convening a high-level panel to discuss the growing risk of renewed conflict between Ethiopia and Eritrea. Once allies in a common fight against the Tigray people, Ethiopian Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed and Eritrean President Isaias Afwerki now regard each other with deep suspicion.
This potential new flashpoint comes amid a backdrop of regional instability , war in Sudan, unrest in Ethiopia, and mounting global indifference. The 2022 Pretoria Agreement, which brought an end to the devastating genocidal war in Tigray, also fractured the Ethiopia-Eritrea alliance. Today, international observers warn that a new conflict between these neighbors could draw in outside powers and destabilize the region even further.
Key questions to be explored:
What lies at the heart of the current Ethiopia-Eritrea tensions?
How did a historic 2019 reconciliation unravel so quickly?
What would a new conflict look like, and what are the potential global ramifications?
What actions can regional and global actors take to avert another war?
