Dear @KenyaAirports: A passenger lost a valuable painting at Nairobi JKIA.
@AssefaSamrawit misplaced a painting depicting the horrors of the Tigray War and the massive use of sexual assault as weapon of war.
The painting is of immense value to her and many survivors of the war.
Close to 120k women suffered sexual violence in Tigray.
Locating and returning this painting to her will be a great act of humanity.
Thank you.

2 years ago a ceasefire ended war between Ethiopia & Eritrea on one side and Tigray forces on the other. But Eritrean forces are still occupying parts of Tigray and people continue to suffer.
The Pretoria agreement needs to be enforced, not just monitored.

During Ethiopia’s genocidal war in Tigray, women’s bodies were weaponized & sexual violence was systematically used to terrorize + destabilize communities.

"The report concludes that there is a reasonable basis to believe that members of the Ethiopian National Defense Force (ENDF), Amhara Special Forces, and Eritrean Defense Forces (EDF) committed genocide against Tigrayans." @NewlinesInst@JURISTnews 1/2

Thank you @TASSCintl for bringing a brave group of #Tigrayan torture survivors to tell their stories.
What Tigrayans have endured since 2020 is a genocide - and it is not over. With 600k dead & Tigrayans facing mass detention & systemic sexual violence, we must end this crisis.
This Int’l Day to #EndRapeInWar, we once again highlight the systematic & widespread sexual violence against Tigray’s women & girls that has been the hallmark of #TigrayGenocide. Perpetrators have weaponized sexual violence as a tool of ethnic cleansing & genocide. Learn more.👇🏾
