The Telegraph: ‘You should have finished off the survivors’: Ethiopian army implicated in brutal war crime video

The ground of the Tigrayan village is soaked with blood and dozens of bodies lie strewn in the grass.

Groans can be heard from a seriously wounded man squirming on the floor between two corpses.

Chatting as they wander through the aftermath of what appears to be a mass execution of civilians in the Tigray region, soldiers laugh and joke among themselves.

Off to one side they spot a young man who seems to have survived by pretending to be dead.

“You should have finished off the survivors,” the cameraman says in Amharic, Ethiopia’s lingua franca, in an apparent rebuke of the perpetrators of the massacre.
