1. 7+ months of #TigrayGenocide has shown us that Ethiopian and Eritrean troops retaliate against Tigrayan civilians when they’re defeated in battle. Now more than ever we need verified #EritreanTroopsOutofTigray. @USUN @VP https://www.nytimes.com/2021/06/23/world/africa/ethiopia-tigray-attack.html

2. As Ethiopian forces retreat, @UNICEF has been raided, and there have been retaliatory massacres. We call on the international community to accept the reinstatement of the elected Tigrayan gov’t to create order + protect civilians. @ChrisCoons @SenatorRisch https://www.cnn.com/2021/06/28/world/ethiopian-forces-mekelle-intl-latam/index.html

3. During the frantic retreat from Mekelle- the int’l community must keep #AllEyesOnTigray + protect vulnerable minorities within Tigray. Eritrean forces have a history of abducting + killing the Kunama, Irob & communities along the border to retaliate. #TigrayGenocide @franceonu

4. Civilians need to be protected not starved, ppl are dying daily due to famine caused by food blockage. This is another attempt by Ethiopia to commit genocide & collective punishment on civilians. #AllEyesOnTigray #CiviliansAreNotTargets @JanezLenarcic https://time.com/6076167/famine-tigray/

5. Ethiopian + Eritrean troops have violated every international + humanitarian law and don’t respect that #CiviliansAreNotTargets. Why would the @UN|SC believe they will respect human rights and the ceasefire now? #TigrayGenocide @EstoniaUN @irishmissionun https://www.cnn.com/2021/06/27/africa/ethiopia-massacre-tigray-mahibere-dego-cmd-intl/index.html

6. Ethiopian government has blocked critical aid and prevented Tigrayan farmers from farming- causing famine. It is crucial that @USAIDSavesLives @UNOCHA work with the elected government of Tigray to save millions from starvation. #TigrayGenocide https://www.axios.com/ethiopia-tigray-famine-samantha-power-7d0117d3-6287-4205-bf01-542d5f2a527e.html

7. As part of the war on Tigray all invaders have brutally targeted civilians and infrastructure. Immediate and verifiable withdrawal of Amhara militias, Ethiopian + Eritrean forces is needed to end #TigrayGenocide. #CiviliansAreNotTargets @SecBlinken @USUN https://www.theguardian.com/global-development/2021/may/14/bodies-are-being-eaten-by-hyenas-girls-of-eight-raped

8. Collective punishment of civilians has been @AbiyAhmedAli’s choice of retaliation. Tens of thousands of civilians in Tigray have suffered because of this. We can’t continue to allow this! #AllEyesOnTigray #CiviliansAreNotTargets @antonioguterres @LindaT_G @EU_Commission

9. Dozens of civilians killed & over 100 injured after Ethiopia strikes a busy market. This disregard for human life & International law is the reason Intl. intervention & monitoring is necessary! #AllEyesOnTigray #CiviliansAreNotTargets @SecBlinken @UN https://apnews.com/article/ethiopoia-tigray-airstrike-togoga-424851651a0e02c21df71c86d9b70ec2

10. The Ethiopian & Eritrean troops have intentionally targeted Tigray civilians directly and indirectly, by destroying their livelihoods as a weapon of war. #CiviliansAreNotTargets justice must be served @IntlCrimCourt @GCR2P @UNOSAPG @SAdamsR2P https://www.cnn.com/2021/06/27/africa/ethiopia-massacre-tigray-mahibere-dego-cmd-intl/index.html

12. We cannot emphasize the importance of having internationally monitored & verifiable withdrawal of Eritrean troops immediately, along Amhara militias. #CiviliansAreNotTargets #TigrayGenocide @POTUS @EU_Commission @eu_echo @JanezLenarcic @Europarl_EN @UNHCRCanada

13. Communication must be restored throughout Tigray. What is @AbiyAhmedAli & Isaias Afwerki exactly hiding, & why aren’t world leaders questioning this suppress dissent? It’s time leaders intervene & protect Tigray. #CiviliansAreNotTargets @antonioguterres @mbachelet @EUCouncil

14. .@GlobalGsts has received reports that the town of Yechila, and its nearby villages, have completely collapsed following the continued indiscriminate shellings & bombardments by Ethiopian forces. Invading troops must leave Tigray. #CiviliansAreNotTargets @RepKarenBass

15. Yechila, a town of over 30,000 residents, has completely collapsed following the continued indiscriminate shelling & bombardments by @AbiyAhmedAli. Another day, another Aleppo in Tigray. Dozens were killed & 1000s fled. @EUCouncil @KarimKhanQC @StateDept #TigrayGenocide

1. UNICEF said Ethiopian National Defense Forces (#ENDF) has entered the UNICEF office in #Mekele, #Tigray, today & dismantled VSAT equipment.

4. The head of the U.S. Agency for International Development said the hunger crisis in Tigray is the world’s worst in a decade, and the new findings about the famine are “terrifying”. Meanwhile, @AbiyAhmedAli still denies it all. @HeikoMaas #AllEyesOnTigray https://time.com/6076167/famine-tigray/

5. The world said: “Never again!” to genocide. But now, the world is watching again as a man-made famine is taking place in Tigray, at the hands of @AbiyAhmedAli & Isaias Afwerki. Germany act now! @HeikoMaas @regsprecher @Mi_Muentefering @BaerbelKofler https://time.com/6076167/famine-tigray/
