I am begging everyone to start thinking about how we are going to mobilize support for the people of #Tigray.
Outside food aid will be a fraction of what it was before and a smaller fraction of what will be needed to save lives.
US Envoy Visits Tigray as Strains with Ethiopia Deepen
US Ambassador Ervin Massinga arrived in Mekelle today for a one-day visit. After their meeting, #Tigray VP Amanuel Assefa said Massinga is expected to return within a week to restart stalled dialogue with the federal gov’t.

🚨An Emergency Appeal from #Tigray's Bureau of Health (@TigrayRHB)
To avoid "imminent operational collapse", they need fuel, medicine, and funding.
There have been no refills of essential meds in 2026 and no fuel since Jan. Docs got 1/2 salary in Dec 2025, nothing since.
1/2
Interesting take on new conflict brewing in Ethiopia. The choice is either #AbiyAhmed ignites a conflict with TPLF that will turn into guerilla warfare setting back current projection of development or he risks losing power. He's caught between rock and hard place.
UN Calls for Restraint In #Tigray, Full Pretoria Implementation

We're excited to officially launch our #GivingTuesday 2025 campaign! Our goal is to raise $10,000 by December 2, 2025, to support children in #Tigray and provide essential #educational supplies. 👇Join us —because #HopeStartsHere! https://t.co/r7ItStWGhI
Happy #Ashenda to the indefatigable and stubborn joy of #Tigrayan women.
You are the pulse that keeps Tigray alive; the heartbeat who endure, resist, and love louder than any attempt to silence you.
Salute for pulling this year’s beautiful celebrations together!
Tigrayan health professionals didn’t get their salary for more than 2 years starting end of 2020, they were starved and couldn’t use their savings. Ethiopian🇪🇹 doctors on the other hand were showing support to #TigrayGenocide in the middle of surgery. You got what you supported!
Can someone summarize what’s happening in Tigray politically? I’m already aware of the humanitarian crisis, and it hurts to see our people going through this💔

📌 Heeding the call to stave off another impending catastrophe in #Tigray (Please Retweet)
~ Federal Government.
♦️ Here is a chance for you to redeem yourselves.
You have a very heavy hand for causing this.
You brought a devil incarnate, terrorist state of #Eritrea as well as local terrorists to have the people of #Tigray get to where they are now. The only way there will be a chance to redeem yourself from this heinous crime of yours is to RE-DIRECT all resources, particularly resources that you waste on white elephant projects and palaces to stop this impending disaster.
~ Local Government. (#Tigray Interim Administration)
♦️ The people of #Tigray have trusted you. Their trust went as far as giving their children and livelihood to you without asking much in return. Here is a chance for you to pay them dividends.
~ Open the door to all. Make it easier to work for the people, to help people, to innovate for the benefit of the people free of political party and ideology affiliation.
~ Your singular priority MUST be the people of #Tigray. Not outdated ideology, not pandering to extremists and not trivial noises.
~ Pull all strings there can be pulled, weigh in compromises, work with ANYONE that provides relief to the people and act on it as efficiently and as quickly possible. Cut your bureaucratic red tapes heavily and decisively.
~ Activists, the diaspora and opposition politicians.
♦️ While alerting the UN, the "international community" about the impending disaster is good, you have seen how tepid the response was for your tireless call for the last three years. Hence, re-focus and redirect your efforts in organizing and assisting the relief efforts with all resources you can afford, including b being physically present with those, who need your help in #Tigray.
~ Though it feels good to mock, insult and belittle Ethiopian government, Tigray Interim Administration, Notable Ethiopians, media personalities or many of those who we feel have done the people wrong (trust me I have done it myself and it does feel good) it has 0 value in helping those in dire need. For #Tigray It is much more beneficial to make less enemies and earn more friends (of course with some caveat)
~ Remember that activism has goals to reach. It can't be perpetual. If it becomes perpetual, it won't be activism, but a business. When it becomes a business, it would stop being about the people, but about the "activists".
This way, we can pull it together and we can avoid another tragedy.
Thank you.
#Ethiopia: Echoes of Tigray: Stories of #Tigrayan children struggling for survival on the streets of Addis
https://t.co/9XB71hMJkJ
Despite the Tigray war’s conclusion in November 2022, the humanitarian crisis persists as displaced families disperse across Ethiopia. A stark reality unfolds on #Addis_Ababa’s bustling streets where growing numbers of Tigrayan children seek refuge, driven by conflict and poverty.
Nine-year-old Wegen fled eastern Tigray when violence erupted in 2020, hindering his education. He traverses 10 kilometers daily, selling items to aid his financially constrained family. Similarly, seven-year-old Bri’s family fled southern Tigray when drought ravaged 20% of the region’s farmland. The boys sell goods so parents can hawk wares, yearning to resume their disrupted schooling.
Fourteen-year-old Bisrat endured a grueling 1,000 kilometer exodus from southern Tigray after her village’s ruthless invasion, struggling to reconcile horrendous memories. Compelled to prematurely discontinue 4th grade, Bisrat sells items with a displaced friend to assist her family, nurturing aspirations to resume learning and epitomizing migrant resilience.
Facing tenure insecurity and devoid of a support network, the displaced Tigrayan children epitomize the human toll inflicted by the conflict. Their childhoods, meant for schoolyard games and acquiring classroom knowledge, are now consumed with securing their families’ survival.
CNN's @nimaelbagir reports from Chad where
refugees describe the atrocities against African ethnic groups fleeing Darfur in neighbouring Sudan.

It's been a year since the #Tigray peace agreement was reached.
A year later - humanitarian supplies remain limited, and Eritrean and Amhara forces are still occupying part of the region and perpetrating atrocities.
The 6+ million people who survived a brutal two-year siege deserve peace, health, and well-being.
