Active Genocide Alert for Ethiopia - Update 2,
by Lemkin Institute for Genocide Prevention
"For the past eight years, the Amhara have been systematically targeted based on their ethnic identity and subjected to killings, abductions, sexual violence, and arbitrary detention. This pattern of violence has led to an estimated tens of thousands of civilian casualties. The tightly knit genocidal structure that the regime of Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed has created to "exterminate" Amhara identity all over Ethiopia must be dismantled." - @LemkinInstitute

#GPE_EventAlert
Global Rally to raise awareness about the ongoing #AmharaGenocide, #WarOnAmhara and all around tyranny and repression in #Ethiopia. May 2026
GPE calls upon all concerned human rights defenders, journalists, media personalities and all concerned mandated bodies to amplify these rally events across the globe. This is a voice of people targeted for over 35 years.
Ethnic Amharas in Ethiopia have been continuously under the threat of genocide for over 3 decades. In addition, Ethiopia has been under a tyrannical and repressive regime that pushed the nation into the brink of total disaster!
Currently the regime in Ethiopia is planning to hold an election amid genocide, war and mass detention and extra-judicial killings of its citizens!
The targeted Amhara people in particular and all concerned Ethiopians in the diaspora are holding these rallies to raise awareness about the upcoming disaster the regime in Ethiopia is shrouding under the guise of 'Election'.
There are already sings of rigging, inciting civil discord and extra-judicial killings in addition to the #WarOnAmhara the regime is waging in the Amahra Region.
Be a voice to the voiceless!
Resource:
We collected posters issued by the organizers and made it available through a shared folder here. Find a rally near you and join and be a voice!
We will try to update the folder with newly issued posters as soon as organizers make it available.

Three years ago, on April 12, #Ethiopia journalist Dawit Begashaw, was arrested in a sweeping crackdown on reporting about conflict in the Amhara region. He remains behind bars on terrorism charges that carry a potential death sentence.
He is due to present his defense in May.
Dawit’s continued detention, along with three other journalists also accused of terrorism — Genet Asmamaw, Meskerem Abera, and Gobeze Sisay — underscores the risks facing independent media in Ethiopia and the criminalization of reporting on matters of public interest.
@pressfreedom calls for Dawit’s immediate release and for Ethiopian authorities to stop criminalizing journalism.
