For the sake of our children, our families & the future of Tigray, we must demand de-escalation, dialogue, unity & peace.
We’ve lost way too many precious lives to relive the nightmares of the #tigraygenocide.

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

Dresses and scarfs (ነፀላ፣ ጋቢ) collected from people, being cut in Ayder Hospital. To be used as gauze for cesarean sections, and other surgical operations, when we ran out of supplies. The clothes were collected from people. A historical video (sept 2022). #resilience
After 2 years of war, the #Tigray region in #Ethiopia is recovering slowly.
People are traumatized but also hopeful.
A thread with pictures from my latest trip.
Calling the whole of Scandinavia: If you are around, you should join this important but also very given session. I'm very excited and humbled, and I will do my absolute best, to honor this very important subject. Tigray still needs us. #womenoftigray#TigrayGenocide
There is no other situation 🌍 in which 6 million people have been kept under siege for almost 2 years like in #Tigray, Ethiopia. This is a health crisis. I urge the intl. community to give this crisis the attention it deserves. There is a narrow window now to prevent genocide.
Eritrean and Ethiopian forces carpet bombing #Tigray cities almost daily. Civilians are being killed and the wounded that could have been saved are dying due to lack of treatment and urgently needed care. The siege must end and humanitarian aid allowed in.
Latest attack on an internally displaced camp in #Tigray, #Ethiopia killed over 50 people. This terror must end. Peace is the only way to protect innocent lives and to ensure safe passage for humanitarian and health aid.

Tragic scenes from #Tigray, Ethiopia. Almost daily drone attacks on civilians. Civilians should be protected. We call on Eritrean & Ethiopian forces to end the war, end the siege, & provide access for humanitarian & health aid. Innocent lives, including children's, are at stake.
