The Ethiopian government is engaged in war rhetoric against the people of Tigray in defiance of the Pretoria agreement.
Here is a press release by one of the opposition parties in Tigray.
@MikeHammerUSA@UNOCHA@WorldBank@StateDept
There is no excuse for POTUS to send US officials to #Ethiopia for #IGF2022. Our participation legitimizes a gov’t whose track record on internet governance includes imposing an internet blackout on #Tigray for 2 years – crushing #freespeech & hiding horrific #humanrights abuses.
In UK Parliament Government's development minister, Andrew Mitchell, says Eritrean forces are inside Tigray and urges them to withdraw. Says mutually satisfactory security arrangements needed for peace. UK will do everything it can to ensure no impunity for war crimes and abuses
Today marks the second week of the signing of #CoH. The desperately needed insulin and dyalsis medications are not yet allowed in to #Tigray. The health situation remains as bad as it was, if not worse.
The cessation of hostilities agreement signed between Ethiopia & #Tigray in South Africa has been violated by Ethiopian & Eritrean forces since day one of the signing.
Towns are being shelled… many civilians dead & wounded.
Starvation still used as a weapon.
@WorldBank@cnni
I am however deeply concerned about reports of ongoing shelling in #Tigray since the immediate cessation of hostilities was announced. The peace agreement must be respected and all hostilities must end. (2/4)
Violating the cessation of hostilities signed in South Africa, the Ethiopian government has bombed the towns of Maichew, Enticho, and Adigrat killing lots of innocent civilians today.

“Sources from the area claim Ethiopian and Eritrean forces (their allies) have been instructed to kill three Tigrayans each, including elderly and children, and that victims’ limbs and skulls are on display.”

Spoke directly to @POTUS#Biden today regarding potential genocide in #Tigray. He is very well aware of the situation and is open to hear my ideas on how to respond, particularly to pressure #Eritrea to withdraw troops.
The besieged #Tigray is defending against a full scale attack and invasion by Eritrean troops.
Stop the two tyrants of Ethiopia and Eritrea from exterminating Tigrayans!!
@SenateForeign@SecBlinken@TheBlackCaucus@POTUS
Eritrea has launched a full scale attack from all directions to invade Tigray… and Ethiopians are in the same trenches helping the Eritreans.
@SecBlinken@POTUS@SenateForeign
#AbiyAhmed’s drones a few minutes ago attacked a residential area in Mekelle killing and wounding innocent civilians. No desperate and cowardly act could reverse the Regime’s battlefield losses. #TigrayWillPrevail!
Despite the Tigray govt’s readiness for peace, the Ethiopian govt conducted a drone attack in Mekele, #Tigray today.
Multiple civilian casualties reported.
