Why use this measure over Gaza - where fewer than 20,000 Palestinians and Israelis have died when you didn’t use it when over 380,000 died in Tigray? Each death is a tragedy but all human life is equally valuable
The war in Northern #Ethiopia was the deadliest conflict in ‘22, featuring a long-term denial of humanitarian access to #Tigray, mass atrocities, and widespread hunger. It was a regional security threat. @antonioguterres, why didn't you invoke Article 99 then or for #Sudan now?
Occupation & ethnic cleansing of #Irob, land inhabited by Tigray’s indigenous minority, is ongoing. Without the renewal of the #ICHREE mandate, the path to justice is obstructed. Without accountability, the cycle of violence against minorities will only continue. #Justice4Tigray
Human Rights violations continues in 🇪🇹's Western #Tigray by Amhara invading forces despite the Pretoria Peace Agreement. Ppl die, disappear, raped, yet Right Organizations & 🇪🇹n gov't keep silent. Millions of IDPs still in shelters waiting to return home.
A staggering 43% of women in #Tigray#Ethiopia experienced one form of #sexualviolence during the 2020-22 war. Systemic war-related #SGBV was widespread, with gang-rape as the most common form of sexual violence. https://t.co/5ISnsULkd0
#Ethiopia: #Orthodox priest stranded at #Addis_Abeba Airport, says his rights violated by security forces https://t.co/7deofNJLfm
Speaking to Addis Standard by phone from the airport, where he is stranded for the last two days, Aba Serekebirhan expressed his frustrations and called the situation a “violation of his human rights.”
Lawyers have filed complaints on his behalf and obtained a court order for him to appear at a court of law, he said, but security forces did not allow him to leave the airport.
Asked by Addis Standard , Ashenafi Zeray, senior corporate communications officer at the Ethiopian Airlines, said the matter did not concern the Airlines.
Federal police spokesperson, Jeylan Abdi, on his part said that he has no information regarding the stranded priest.
Authorities & forces unlawfully rounded up Tigrayans in Western Tigray holding them in dire conditions. Many were detained for over a year. Detainees described killings, torture, and enforced disappearances before eventual forcible expulsion. New @hrw https://t.co/0hSyO31cYn

In Adigrat, inspiring meeting with Bishop Abune Tesfasdlassie Medhin. @CIDSE
And looking at the heartbreaking destruction of the #Adigrat University. Let’s reconstruct Education as education will be key to reconstruct.
#Ethiopia#Tigray
Failed Pretoria Peace Agreement between #TPLF & 🇪🇹 federal gov't. Ethiopia Election Commission denied TPLF legal personality, a party that signed Pretoria peace agreement. Another level of betrayal. Tigray deserves peace. @USAmbUN30@StateDept
.@SecBlinken says”War Crimes, Crimes Against Humanity & Ethnic Cleansing”in Tigray” 600,000 dead. @KarimKhanQC needs to ensure ICC or other international mechanisms can uphold justice. World must be consistent in Ukraine & Tigray. https://t.co/r49ynjCv1l
