“Ethiopianist” Twitter is in shambles over Biden statement & I’m just in awe of the sheer extent of hate & depravity on display.
Imagine getting this worked up simply because you couldn’t successfully commit genocide in the dark, without consequences.🙊🤮
Ethiopian soldiers, armed with guns and grenades have raided a hospital in the #Tigray region, reportedly because they spoke to CNN.
@nimaelbagir had this update for @BeckyCNN following her exclusive reporting.
"The blood is visible and stains the ground."
As Eritrean troops operate with total impunity in Ethiopia's war-torn northern Tigray region, CNN's @nimaelbagir shares a story of atrocities and executions.

6 months of extrajudicial killing
6 months of weaponized rape & hunger
6 months of looting & destruction of infrastructure
6 months of displacement & bombardments of cities & villages
6 months of state-sponsored #TigrayGenocide emboldened by global inaction
Please #PrayForTigray
We don't know the death toll but a good guess is that tens of thousands have died in Tigray, from starvation as well as bullets. Yet Ethiopia continues to deny reliable humanitarian access, and Eritrean troops remain in place. The brutality hasn't received the attention it needs.
#UN official warns that sexual violence is being perpetrated "with a level of cruelty beyond comprehension" in #Ethiopia's Tigray region. Pramila Patten told the UN Security Council that healthcare workers there are documenting new cases of rape & gang rape every day.
The US supported joint mechanism would team an Ethiopian state appointed body with a UN body.The same state not deeming worthy for investigation our/@amnesty findings of extrajudicial executions aired on @jaketapper show?Are these commitments really sufficient, Senator?
In the aftermath of our investigation Gregory Meeks, Chair of the US House Committee on Foreign Affairs says he will push for an “internationally-led” investigation into the "grievous situation" in the Tigray region including "what appears to be a massacre of unarmed civilians."
In Tigray, Ethiopia, about 2.5 million people in rural areas have not had access to essential services over the last four months.
Despite immense access challenges, humanitarians have reached over 1 million people with emergency assistance.

*When @NaomiCampbell has more empathy than majority of feminist Ethiopians who haven’t even said a word nor a fraction of what she said against #WeaponizedRape. Thank you Naomi for being human.🙏🏾
Witnesses, survivors and residents told Al Jazeera that forces from Eritrea committed egregious crimes after entering Tigray to support the Ethiopian military against their longtime foe. https://t.co/R99Pu3NBl0
It has been 3 months since the conflict & humanitarian crisis in #Tigray started. People that fled are saying "We were eating leaves from the field and drinking water from the nearby well." imagine the people without access inside Tigray. #AllowAccessToTigray#TigrayGenocide
As millions in #Ethiopia's #Tigray region face a catastrophic situation after 3 months of conflict that's crippled healthcare facilities like this, staffer for medical charity @MSF says difficulty in accessing them reflects "failure of humanitarian world" https://t.co/ERoey0BMpB
