2. “In the largest hospital in Ethiopia’s Tigray region, a child wounded in an air strike bled to death after doctors ran out of gauze and intravenous fluids.

4. Hospitals in Tigray have exhausted their supplies and are now forced to close. The #ChildrenOfTigray are receiving inadequate care.

6. “About 82% of essential drugs were available at the hospital a year ago, compared to 17.5% by the end of 2021.” Humanitarian access must be expedited to save the #ChildrenOfTigray. @UN ACT NOW TO #EndTigraySiege! @unicefchief @PalomaUnicef @USAmbUN https://www.reuters.com/business/healthcare-pharmaceuticals/doctors-say-lives-are-lost-hospitals-ethiopias-tigray-due-dwindling-supplies-2022-01-05/

7. Scores of patients with treatable illness and children are dying due to the deadly blockade by Ethiopia. The lack of supplies is largely the result of a months-long government aid blockade. #EndTigraySiege #ChildrenOfTigray @RepGregoryMeeks @SenSchumerhttps://www.reuters.com/business/healthcare-pharmaceuticals/doctors-say-lives-are-lost-hospitals-ethiopias-tigray-due-dwindling-supplies-2022-01-05/

8. Ethiopia “imposed a comprehensive and unlawful blockade” which prevents food & aid from entering Tigray.

10. The @UN stated there is “a de facto blockade” with hundreds of thousands of people living in famine-like conditions, but has failed to help.

14. “The medics said more than 40% of children aged under five years who come to the hospital are malnourished – double the 2019 rate.” #ChildrenOfTigray desperately need immediate humanitarian assistance. @UNICEFUSA @UNGeneva @SenateForeign #EndTigraySiegehttps://www.bbc.com/news/world-africa-59893216

9. It’s a travesty of justice that the @IntlCrimCourt is failing to do what it claims it’s responsible for. The #ChildrenOfTigray are suffering while the #ICC refuses to take meaningful action to stop genocide and to #EndTigraySiege. @EUCouncil @StateDept https://twitter.com/IntlCrimCourt/status/1480183333137092612?s=20

https://www.tghat.com/2022/01/04/ayder-doctors-and-health-professionals-hoping-against-hope/

11. Deliberately dropping bombs on civilians, and imposing a siege on millions already in famine by blocking food and medicine are war crimes. Why is the @_AfricanUnion still allowing this to continue? #EndTigraySiege @Blklivesmatter @Complex @TheDemocrats https://www.bbc.com/news/world-africa-59921355

12. “The world is tested with COVID19. Add a large-scale, full-fledged War on it. Then add a siege on it.

3. “Those who could easily have been saved with hemodialysis are dying. Patients who have had dialysis for years at our hospital are forced to die just because the supplies that could have been brought are not allowed to reach us.” #EndTigraySiege @USAID
https://www.tghat.com/2022/01/04/ayder-doctors-and-health-professionals-hoping-against-hope/

4. The Ethiopian govt is intentionally targeting Tigrayans by performing airstrikes on civilian infrastructures, then blocking food, medicine, & supplies. @PMEthiopia is guilty of genocide.

8. Doctors in Tigray “blame a 6 month blockade by federal forces & their allies for the severe shortage of medicines & equipment which they say are leading to avoidable deaths.” End the impunity & #EndTigraySiege. @simoncoveney @NorwayMFA @AM_PSC @trussliz https://www.bbc.com/news/world-africa-59893216

9. The Ethiopian regime bombed an internally displaced camp in Tigray, killing 56 civilians. This attack is a war crime.

10. The @IntlCrimCourt must pressure the Ethiopian govt to stop war crimes. But instead, the #ICC remains silent as drone attacks on civilians intensify, and an already dire humanitarian crisis spirals out of control. #EndTigraySiege @WBHoekstra @MinPres https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2022/1/8/dozens-killed-in-ethiopian-air-strike-on-idp-camp-in-tigray

11.

12. The unimaginable is happening in Tigray as famished mothers watch their children wither away due to forced starvation by the Ethiopian govt. Int’l leaders must step in to #EndTigraySiege.

15. .@AbiyAhmedAli offers words of reconciliation then shortly after, carries out drone attacks on children sleeping in a displacement camp on Orthodox Christmas. The blockade must be lifted so the #ChildrenOfTigray can receive care. @goarch @BishopAngaelos https://www.bbc.com/news/world-africa-59921355

16. The number of injured in drone attacks are rising, with more deaths anticipated due to the collapse of Tigray’s healthcare system. An arms embargo on Ethiopia, Eritrea + the countries supplying drones must be enforced. @POTUS @USTradeRep #EndTigraySiege https://twitter.com/OmnaTigray/status/1480756612847398914?s=20

8. “One month ago, everything ran out,” Girmanesh Meles, mother to an 18-month old baby, told Al Jazeera. “It became normal to spend four days eating nothing.” How can the #ICC allow the gravest humanitarian crisis to continue? #EndTigraySiege @Lacroix_UN https://theowp.org/tigrays-humanitarian-crisis-worsens-as-starvation-spreads/

3. ‘There is famine in Ethiopia right now,’ said the UN aid chief in June. Over a month later, and the situation has become worse. The #ChildrenOfTigray are suffering the most. @AbiyAhmedAli must stop hindering humanitarian aid. @IntlCrimCourt @SecBlinken @POTUS @eu_echo @hrw

#ChildrenOfTigray – 3

1. The #ChildrenOfTigray have been robbed of a peaceful childhood by invading forces of the Ethiopian & Eritrean armies.

7. Tyrants @AbiyAhmedAli & Isaias Afwerki have allowed their troops to not only invade Tigray, but to destroy schools, & rape & torture the #ChildrenOfTigray.

10. .@MSF suspending work in parts Tigray after the “brutal murder” of 3 of its staff last month will yet have a another devastating effect on the #ChildrenOfTigray. 87% of health centers in Tigray are destroyed by ????????n &????????n forces. @PmTunisia @VietNam_UN

11. “We haven’t really had a chance to wash ourselves since we arrived. My baby gets sick because of the harsh conditions in which we sleep.” The conditions #ChildrenOfTigray experience in IDP centers are inhumane. #TigrayGenocide @unicefchief @USAmbUN

12. #ChildrenOfTigray deserve the basic human right of education. They have been stripped of this due to the #TigrayGenocide with schools being looted & destroyed by ????????&????????. Australia must ACT & sanction these parties to protect the future of Tigrayans. @ScottMorrisonMP @AlboMP
