💔💔 Time passes, but the pain never fades. You were more than a brother — you were my best friend.
Your courage lives on, your memory never dies. Miss you always, love you forever!!
#TwoYearsWithoutYou#ForeverInMyHeart#TDF#TigrayGenocide
💔💔😭😭Today marks #ONEYEAR since I knew the lose of my young brother who sacrificed his precious life while fighting against #TigrayGenocide.
His memories haunt me day & night. Even one year later It's too hard to believe he's really gone. He wasn't just my brother -- (1/3)
"Tigrayan forces and officials were abducting former combatants and other men and boys on the street, in offices, and in nighttime house-to-house searches, as well as from gold-mining sites."

"We will continue to use all tools available to expose and promote accountability for TPLF officials and other individuals who threaten that peace and stability in the region."

We are hearing deeply disturbing reports that approximately 65 Ethiopians, reportedly the vast majority of them Tigrayans, have been executed in Saudi Arabia.
Many Tigrayans have faced immense hardship in recent years, including mass killings, war, displacement, insecurity, limited opportunities, and pressures in their own country, treating them not only as second class citizens, but enemies.
These domestic scenarios have driven migration of the youth toward Yemen and Saudi Arabia in search of safety and livelihoods.
Reports of persecution and abuse against vulnerable migrants in transit and destination countries have long been a source of concern.
These disturbing news of executions we are receiving represent a grave violation of human dignity and fundamental human rights.
I strongly condemn such actions and call for transparency, accountability, and respect for international human rights standards.
Every human life deserves dignity, justice, and protection.
In this regard neither @reda_getachew
nor @meazaG_ are right. 1st. I doubt if #Abiy govn't has #millions of supporters who're interested to cast their ballot willingly unless forced with iron fist nor does peace & stability in #Tigray to conduct election.

Ethiopia: Reports that election scheduled for 1 June already completed in some polling areas in secret by the regime, without the participation of citizens. Only a ceremonial photo still to be taken
Nothing is painful that watching this clip.
The clip says a lot about the vanishing dreams of those young #kids and the situation in #Tigray in general.
ዋይ ትግራይ ዓደይ ??😥😥

The laziest defense of TPLF today is to say: Abiy Ahmed committed genocide, therefore there is no bigger threat to Tigray than his administration.
That argument sounds morally powerful, but politically it is evasive.
Atrocity by an external enemy does not erase the responsibility of the internal power that claimed to represent, govern, protect, and speak for Tigray for decades. The Tigray war did not fall from the sky. It was not born in a political vacuum. It emerged from a long architecture of power, miscalculation, monopoly, arrogance, and the collapse of accountability.
Responsibility is not avoided by pointing to a worse wrongdoer. A duty-bearer is judged by the duty it owed, the power it held, the risks it created or ignored, and the people it failed to protect.
That is why TPLF remains the first threat to Tigray’s political future. Not because Abiy’s regime is innocent, but because TPLF wants to use Abiy’s crimes as a shield against its own reckoning.
A society cannot be protected by those who refuse to be accountable for how it was exposed, abandoned, silenced, and politically captured. Tigray must confront Addis, but it must first free itself from the internal machinery that keeps turning its suffering into TPLF’s survival.

Since 2018, Ethiopia has received billions of dollars in economic support, aid, and loans. These include approximately $3 billion from the United Arab Emirates, $2 billion from China, $2 billion from the IMF, $1 billion in bonds from France, and about $900 million through a currency swap agreement with the UAE.
However, an important question remains: How efficiently have these resources been used? Have they truly improved the daily lives of ordinary Ethiopians?
Despite the scale of international financial support, many Ethiopians continue to struggle with rising inflation, unemployment, and worsening living conditions. According to numerous economic reports, there is limited visible evidence that these financial inflows have translated into broad-based economic improvement for the population.

My last word:
Silence is no longer an option. What is unfolding in #Tigray must be brought into the public discourse before it's to late. In this regard, my credit goes to #Getachew for writing about the current stalemate whatever the intention of his article is. (7/8)
