@janvandenbulck @olivermb @icahdq Does it mean it is time to review the peer review process and scoring system?

[Mesfin A. Bekalu, PhD @mesfinabt]

@TiborPNagyJr Really? Is that what you think given your expertise in the Horn?

I have directed a documentary about the Amahra genocide. Special screenings are taking place in Washington and Dallas. If your in the area, grab a ticket at Eventbrite.

@EdmundWJLee @HuanyuBao Thanks for sharing, Edmund! From a quick look at the abstract, there seems to be a lack of focus in the literature on equity. Is that correct? Look forward to reading the full text.

An Ethiopian army drone has bombed protesters in Amhara, killing at least 70, local media reports.

Air strikes reportedly hit demonstrators, who'd gathered in the town of Finote Selam to protest federal forces who planned to enter the area. https://t.co/uudr3ZqHGk

@AbiyAhmedAli This only shows the depth and breadth of the problem the country is in. And, it is a pity that we see this in a country being led by a peace laureate!

[BBC News Africa @BBCAfrica]

Residents in Ethiopia’s Amhara region have told the BBC that intense fighting between militias and government troops has continued on Tuesday, with firing of heavy weaponry included.

The government of Ethiopia is solely responsible for the war in the country now. The country has seen two civil wars in less than 5 years under its watch! @AbiyAhmedAli

@AlamuSimeopp You will be held responsible for all you did! Only a matter of time.

[Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus @DrTedros]

.@WHO is concerned about the ongoing violence in Amhara, #Ethiopia’s second most populous region. Humanitarian access is difficult due to blockage of roads; communication is difficult due to internet suspension.

Conflicts have an immediate impact on people's health and can have grave, long-lasting consequences on health systems.

We call for uninterrupted access and protection of health care in Amhara, so WHO and partners can continue our work. Above all, we call for peace.

The Ethiopian government is again at war with its own people, now in the "second" largest region of the country!

[Tibor Nagy @TiborPNagyJr]

Is there any issue left in #Ethiopia which doesnt cause controversy? Ethnicity, religion, and now even a significant historical event - the Battle of Adwa. A great nation with a glorious history seems to find new ways to divide itself. May God help unity! https://t.co/3l2KKoFOtH
