#StopTigrayFamine Pt. 2

1. This man-made humanitarian catastrophe of biblical proportions will claim millions of lives. Yet, @MinisteroDifesa maintains a military deal with @AbiyAhmedAli, the very same tyrant that started #TigrayGenocide and that now refuses to #StopTigrayFamine.https://abcnews.go.com/US/wireStory/400000-people-ethiopias-tigray-face-famine-now-78640838

5. Due to lack of action, a preventable humanitarian catastrophe is unfolding under the eyes of the @IntlCrimCourt. @AbiyAhmedAli’s Govt continues the #TigrayGenocide by deliberately starving Tigrayans. Time to airdrop food! @WFP @UN @POTUSPlease ACT NOW & #StopTigrayFamine!

10. Ethiopia’s tactic has been to allow aid into Tigray when pressure from @IntlCrimCourt mounts. “Just because they allowed trucks in for some visibility at the time of a high-level visit …there is an ongoing blockade.” #StopTigrayFamine @StateDept @UNICEFhttps://www.thenewhumanitarian.org/news/2021/8/9/tigray-aid-response-hit-by-suspensions-blockade

11. Ethiopia has been warned countless times to allow aid into Tigray.

12. .@UNOCHA report shows it’s operating with only 0.2% cash, 12% fuel, & 3% trucks of what’s needed to operate.

13. The @IntlCrimCourt & @UN are failing to protect civilians from a famine engineered by Abiy Ahmed & Isaias Afwerki. “More than 350,000 metric tons of food aid are positioned in Ethiopia, but very little of it can get into Tigray.” #StopTigrayFamine @hrwhttps://apnews.com/article/africa-united-nations-only-on-ap-famine-kenya-ef9fe79cc0cf35917fd190b6e9bd0f46

6. A famine was manufactured by @AbiyAhmedAli’s leadership as a strategy to exterminate Tigrayans; as if weaponized rape, massacres, looting & destruction of infrastructures wasn’t enough. We need action from global leaders to #StopTigrayFamine @PowerUSAID pic.twitter.com/YbEi12HKyF

14. .@AbiyAhmedAli’s administration is so determined to erase Tigrayans that it joined all its forces to exterminate Tigrayans. Abiy ordered troops to shell dense cities, massacre civilians, and created a man-made famine. More must be done to #StopTigrayFamine! @JanezLenarcic

15. Since early on in the war, its been clear that Ethiopia is weaponizing food by systematically using bureaucracy to delay/block aid to Tigray.

2. Definition of Genocide: -Killing members -Causing serious bodily/mental harm -Deliberately inflicting physical destruction -Imposing measures intended to prevent births -Forcibly transferring children Ethiopia has committed all of the above. #CallItAGenocide #TigrayGenocide

3. More than 10 months of genocide, yet @UN @antonioguterres @POTUS and the rest of the international community only provides their “concern”. When will they call a spade a spade? When will they #CallItAGenocide? When will they force @AbiyAhmedAli to end the #TigrayGenocide?

4. If the US and UN #CallItAGenocide, they have the ability to help save millions of Tigrayans currently at risk of dying due to man-man famine. Tigray cannot wait another day! @WhiteHouse @StateDept @USUN @SecBlinken @SamanthaJPower #TigrayGenocide https://www.bbc.com/news/world-africa-57422168

5. The Senate Foreign Relations Committee (@SFRCdems) said, “All abusers must be held to account” in regards to sexual assault in Tigray. But how will you create accountability if you don’t #CallItAGenocide and activate international law? @SenatorMenendez https://twitter.com/SFRCdems/status/1425917223160487937

6. .@BillClinton said “we could have saved 300,000 lives in Rwanda” if he would’ve acted sooner during the #RwandaGenocide. @SecBlinken @POTUS “Never again” is happening right now! #CallItAGenocide before it’s too late for Tigray. @RwandaRemembers @UNOSAPG https://www.cnbc.com/id/100546207

7. .@SecBlinken @USAmbUN – have you forgotten what you learned from Rwanda, Darfur, and Myanmar? Take action in Tigray before it’s too late.

How do you reconcile this? #CallItAGenocide and treat it as such. @RepGregoryMeeks @HouseForeign https://www.un.org/en/chronicle/article/responsibility-protect

12. “Reports indicate that more than 17,000 Tigrayan members of the Ethiopian military have been detained & face torture and execution.” When will the @UN allow an honest independent investigation of the crimes committed by Ethiopia? #CallItAGenocide @hrw https://omnatigray.org/the-mass-arrest-of-tigrayans-in-ethiopia/

13. After burning crops & looting food in Tigray, the Ethiopian govt has systematically blocked Tigray from receiving aid using hardline bureaucracy while appearing it’s been granting access. #CallItAGenocide #TigrayGenocide @JanezLenarcic @KellyTClements https://news.yahoo.com/ethiopias-tigray-crisis-millions-risk-175416640.html

Stages of Genocide

1. 1st stage of genocide: CLASSIFICATION. Tigrayans are classified based on ethnicity on their ID cards leading to ethnic profiling the @UNOSAPG states is “a dangerous trajectory that heightens the risk of genocide.” @UN #CallItAGenocide #TigrayGenocide https://www.nytimes.com/2020/12/12/world/africa/Ethiopia-Tigray-ethnic.html?.?mc=aud_dev&ad-keywords=auddevgate&gclid=CjwKCAjwyvaJBhBpEiwA8d38vBFqNHKnQKasDG7WU4rWRA6iqlwhfQke44o3i2iUobYm0I7JlDwG0xoCShwQAvD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds

2. 2nd stage of genocide: SYMBOLIZATION. .@AbiyAhmedAli has symbolized Tigrayans through slurs like “junta”, in what leaders throughout Ethiopia have described as deliberately exacerbating hatred between ethnic groups. @UN #CallitAGenocide https://www.cnn.com/2021/09/07/africa/abiy-ahmed-ethiopia-tigray-conflict-cmd-intl/index.html

3. 3rd stage of genocide: DISCRIMINATION. Ethnic profiling of Tigrayans began shortly after @AbiyAhmedAli came to power & intensified during the #TigrayGenocide. Tigrayans across Ethiopia have been arrested simply for speaking Tigrinya. @UN #CallItAGenocide https://apnews.com/article/africa-race-and-ethnicity-racial-injustice-b1a97f2569592f499565bfb6e673dc3d

4. 4th stage of genocide: DEHUMANIZATION. From “daytime hyenas” to “weeds” and “cancers,” @AbiyAhmedAli has repeatedly associated Tigrayans with something to fear and eradicate. @UN #CallItAGenocide #TigrayGenocide https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/abiys-pledge-to-crush-weeds-of-tigray-raises-fears-of-genocide-in-ethiopia-sx0xkqb2v

5. 5th stage of genocide: ORGANIZATION. Ethiopia has deployed federal forces, militias, & allied Eritrean forces into Tigray. They’ve even called upon everyday citizens to join the war to defeat Tigray “once & for all.” @UN #CallItAGenocide #TigrayGenocide https://www.cbc.ca/news/world/ethiopia-tigray-war-1.6136713?__vfz=medium%3Dsharebar

6. 6th stage of genocide: POLARIZATION. Propaganda about the war on Tigray by Ethiopian state-sponsored media and @AbiyAhmedAli along with ongoing hate speech about Tigrayans, has further intensified the violence against them. @UN #CallItAGenocide https://www.un.org/en/genocideprevention/documents/2021-07-30_Statement-on-situation-in-Ethiopia.pdf

7. 7th stage of genocide: PREPARATION. As Tigray prepared for election, @AbiyAhmedAli indirectly threatened civilians, “Young people should not die, mothers should not cry & houses should not be demolished so politicians can take power.” @UN #CallItAGenocide https://www.yahoo.com/now/ethiopias-abiy-warns-opposition-power-grab-amid-pandemic-090005160.html

8. 8th stage of genocide: PERSECUTION. Masses of Tigrayans are arbitrarily arrested in preparation for their extermination. These detainees include children as young as 3 whose only crime is being Tigrayan. @UN @SecBlinken #CallItAGenocide #TigrayGenocide https://apnews.com/article/africa-ethiopia-ef9cd35dfd9e5b941cf7a1fa96a47fbf

9. 9th stage of genocide: TERMINATION: With at least a dozen massacres, Ethiopia has indulged in the killing of Tigrayans due to their ethnicity. Now they’re starving Tigray with a man-made famine. @UN @SecBlinken – act now! #CallItAGenocide #TigrayGenocide https://www.cnn.com/videos/world/2021/09/09/ethiopia-tigray-bodies-recovered-sudan-river-elbagir-pkg-intl-lead-vpx.cnn

10. 10th stage of genocide? DENIAL: @AbiyAhmedAli has denied atrocities in Tigray from the onset. From denying Eritrean presence in the conflict, to denying hunger in Tigray, Abiy has lied about the brutality of the #TigrayGenocide. @UN #CallItAGenocide https://www.bbc.com/news/av/world-africa-57551057

#CallItAGenocide Pt. 2

1. “In many of the armed conflicts that have ignited in recent years, parties to the conflict are consciously violating international humanitarian law.” How can the @UN continue to let Ethiopia disregard human life in Tigray? @USAmbUN #CallItAGenocide https://www.un.org/en/chronicle/article/responsibility-protect

2. A government that commits Genocide should never be trusted to investigate its own crimes on humanity. This is absurd!

3. How much longer will Ethiopia & Eritrea be enabled by the @UN to break international law?

4. “They began to harass & beat customers and employees and demanded to see their identity documents, before taking five people, all ethnic Tigrayans.” When will the @UN understand that it’s time to #CallItAGenocide? @VietNam_UN @franceonu @KenyaMissionUN https://www.amnesty.org/en/latest/press-release/2021/07/ethiopia-end-arbitrary-detentions-of-tigrayans-activists-and-journalists-in-addis-ababa-and-reveal-whereabouts-of-unaccounted-detainees/

8. After looting and destroying Tigray’s resources, Ethiopia declared a siege in the name of a fake “unilateral ceasefire” only to continue to use hunger as a weapon of war.” It’s time to #CallItAGenocide. @NorwayUN @irishmissionun @EstoniaUN @SVG_UN https://euobserver.com/world/152370

3. ‘Rape has been used as a weapon of war; a @USAID report includes testimony from a woman who recalled her rapist saying he was “cleansing the bloodlines” of Tigrayan women.’ What is being used is the language of genocide. @HouseForeign #CallItAGenocide https://www.vox.com/22370629/ethiopia-tigray-eritrea-amhara-war-ethnic-cleansing

1. Horrific sexual violence stories are coming out from Tigray by brave women willing to tell their story. However, Canada’s @liberal_party with its feminine agenda has remained silent. @BlocQuebecois @Alduceppe #cdnpoli #VoteForHumanRights #TigrayGenocide https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2021/4/21/a-tigrayan-womb-should-never-give-birth-rape-in-ethiopia-tigray

8. Recent @amnesty report shows how Tigrayan women & girls are victims of ferocious #SGBV, gang-rapes & sexual slavery at the hands of ????????/???????? troops.

IGAD claims its mission is to assist in food security, environmental protection, peace & security, but has failed. @igadsecretariat & @_AfricanUnion don’t have solutions, because they are the problem. @SecBlinken @EUCouncil @Blklivesmatter @USAmbUN @hrw https://www.msn.com/en-ae/news/world/ethiopias-tigray-rebels-accuse-african-union-of-bias/ar-AANSd5j

2. As a @NATO member, Turkey is in violation of its agreed upon commitment to preventing Conflict Related Sexual Violence. Drone sales are exacerbating a genocide where rape & starvation are being weaponized. @nevsinmengu @faikoztrak #300DaysOfTigrayGenocide https://sites.tufts.edu/reinventingpeace/2021/08/10/what-rape-as-a-weapon-of-war-in-tigray-really-means/

3. The @_AfricanUnion with the help of African members of the @UN Security Council have failed the people of Tigray. It’s been #300DaysOfTigrayGenocide & the genocide is only escalating. @KenyaMissionUN @Niger_ONU @PmTunisia @AUC_MoussaFaki @Blklivesmatter https://www.msn.com/en-ae/news/world/ethiopias-tigray-rebels-accuse-african-union-of-bias/ar-AANSd5j

4. IGAD claims to be “motivated by a vision where the people of the region would develop a regional identity, live in peace & enjoy a safe environment alleviating poverty,” but has been complicit with #300DaysOfTigrayGenocide. @nuurist @UEaDjibouti @SweinEthiopia @HLundquist @USUN

5. The @_AfricanUnion and @igadsecretariat have only proven to be useless for African lives. As the Horn of Africa is being destabilized @AUC_MoussaFaki & @DrWorkneh have done nothing to de-escalate. @EUatUN @UNGeneva @RulesDemocrats #300DaysOfTigrayGenocide https://abcnews.go.com/International/wireStory/tigray-forces-ethiopia-support-negotiated-end-war-79666646

6. Since Nov 2020, the Ethiopian government has repeatedly been caught lying about their intentional targeting of civilians in #Tigray. How much longer before we start believing the victims?! #300DaysOfTigrayGenocide @Niger_ONU @JoeBiden @RepChuck @G7 @igadcewarn

7. In any crisis it’s critical that witnesses and victims are centered, but in #Eth the opposite is happening. Through communication blackouts and efforts to conceal genocide by the Ethiopian govt, Tigrayan voices are being silenced! #300DaysOfTigrayGenocide @AMB_Affey @NLatUN

8. 300 days of blocking aid 300 days of rape300 days of foreign troops invading300 days of civilians being targeted 300 days of every crime against humanity imaginable being committed by #Eth & #Eritrea#300DaysOfTigrayGenocide @PmTunisia @tomastobe https://www.dailysabah.com/world/africa/this-is-genocide-ethiopia-attempts-to-erase-tigrayan-ethnicity/amp

9. In any crisis it’s critical that witnesses and victims are centered, but in #Eth the opposite is happening. Through communication blackouts and efforts to conceal genocide by the Ethiopian govt, Tigrayan voices are being silenced! #300DaysOfTigrayGenocide @AMB_Affey @NLatUN

10. It has been #300DaysofTigrayGenocide with 91% of the population still needing emergency humanitarian aid & Tigray under complete siege with all basic services cut off for months. @NATO @UNPeacekeeping @USNATO end #TigrayGenocide. https://news.un.org/en/story/2021/08/1098582

11. #300DaysofTigrayGenocide yet we have not seen @UN Security Council do anything to end the genocide in #Tigray. 2.2M people remain displaced, 90% of the harvest in the region has been looted/burned, 20k+ sexual violence reported against women. @NorwayNATO @UKNATO @EstoniaUN

12. #300DaysofTigrayGenocide 70k+ refugees in #Sudan, 80% of health facilities are destroyed, 75% of state & private schools looted & damaged, and a significant part of #Tigray is still under #Amhara & #Eritrea occupation. End the siege in #Tigray @RepTedDeutch @RepSpeier @MexOnu

13. Humanitarian aid to #Tigray is still blocked, making the catastrophe worse. Will @UN ever do something to end the genocide? Will @un Security Council intervene? @UNPeacekeeping @CanadaNATO @USAmbNATO @RepAdamSchiff @RepChuck @EP_ForeignAff @EPPGroup #300DaysofTigrayGenocide

14. Instead of ending #TigrayGenocide the world is watching #Eth buy weapons, drones to further escalate its genocidal #WarOnTigray. #TurkeyDroneSale will only worsen the situation. #300DaysofTigrayGenocide @faikoztrak @FrankPallone @RepSchneider @RepDonBacon @RepJudyChu @RepAlGreen

15. Can you survive 300 days of genocide? Where food, water, & medicine are deliberately blocked off. Where you witness gruesome acts of sexual violence, executions, bombings of your family & friends. This is the reality for millions of Tigrayans #300DaysofTigrayGenocide @nuurist @G7

16. If #TigrayGenocide was happening in a European country, world actors would’ve intervened to stop it. But because Tigrayans are Africans, the Int’l community has disregarded #300DaysofTigrayGenocide. Do black lives not matter? @Niger_ONU @NorwayUN @jensstoltenberg @BelgiumNATO

17. The people of Tigray have been suffering immensely at the hands of Ethiopian and Eritrean Govts. We are asking for a limited no fly zone that does not hinder humanitarian delivery. PLEASE, it has been #300DaysOfTigrayGenocide. @SecBlinken @USNATO @UN https://www.voanews.com/africa/unicef-100000-children-tigray-suffering-life-threatening-malnutrition

18. For almost 1 year, the people of Tigray have been inflicted by barbaric and inhumane acts that cannot be undone. Why are world leaders still allowing dictators like Abiy & Isaias to destroy the Horn of Africa? @SenatorWong @MarisePayne @ZedSeselja @_AfricanUnion @igadcewarn

1. “On day one I know we received around 15 dead bodies & 7 wounded civilians.” #HumeraMassacre is one of the many massacres during #TigrayGenocide.

6. “Residents of towns of Humera & Alamata say they are being singled out, attacked & driven from their homes by Amhara Special Forces.” With the presence of invading forces, their own land has become a living hell for Tigrayans. #HumeraMassacre @Haavisto https://www.garoweonline.com/en/world/africa/report-amhara-troops-attacking-tigray-people-in-humera-and-alamata

7. “We found her dead on the spot,” he said. “A bullet entered her chest and came out through her back.” The @IntlCrimCourt must take concrete action to halt the ongoing #TigrayGenocide.

#HumeraMassacre Pt. 4

1. The crimes we’re hearing about are unfathomable. “Some had been struck with an axe.” When will France take significant action? When will world leaders demonstrate that they are genuinely concerned? #HumeraMassacre @Elysee @francediplo_EN @eu_echo https://reut.rs/3rPpJ0J

2. Black lives must matter everywhere. Sound the alarm and push for action on #TigrayGenocide! Recently over 40 corpses of Tigrayans have washed up on the Sudanese river banks. This genocide must be stopped. #HumeraMassacre @Elysee @francediplo_EN @hrw https://nyti.ms/3fNkgTe

3. ‘They were shot in their chest, abdomen, legs and also had their hands tied.’ This intentional act of genocide cannot be overlooked. Innocent civilians suffer as the French government stays silent. @Elysee @francediplo_EN @AmbafranceET #HumeraMassacre https://reut.rs/3rPpJ0J

4. Tigrayans in Humera continue to suffer at the hands of Ethiopian government. When will the world speak of the #HumeraMassacre? Bodies wash up along the river, massacres continue, and lives are lost. Enough is enough. #TigrayGenocide @UNOCHA @Refugees @UNHumanRights

5. What is taking place is #TigrayGenocide. The current #HumeraMassacre should serve as a wake-up call that it is not enough to condemn. You must take meaningful action, today! @UN_HRC @Elysee @francediplo_EN @UKinEthiopia @JanezLenarcic @EUCouncil

8. As a result of the current invading Amhara militia, fearful Tigrayans are fleeing their homes in Humera and other western Tigray districts. They have been forced to leave. Nobody deserves to live in perpetual fear of their own country. #HumeraMassacre @Elysee @francedip @UN

9. “Some of the corpses had facial markings indicating they were ethnic Tigrayans.” The barbaric Amhara militia are continuing Ethiopia’s brutal genocidal campaign against innocent civilians. @ItalyMFA is once again silent in front of #HumeraMassacre @hrw https://www.voanews.com/africa/bodies-found-river-between-ethiopias-tigray-and-sudan

It is time for the @IntlCrimCourt to intensify its efforts & put an end to #TigrayGenocide! @ItalyMFA @RaiNews https://www.voanews.com/africa/bodies-found-river-between-ethiopias-tigray-and-sudan

12. #TigrayGenocide is ongoing throughout Ethiopia. @IntlCrimCourt’s Piotr Hofmański & its other leaders must hold Ethiopia’s @AbiyAhmedAli accountable for the war crimes perpetrated. #HumeraMassacre @KarimKhanQC @sebastianocardi @luigidimaio @ItalyUN_NY https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/bodies-found-in-river-between-ethiopias-tigray-sudan/2021/08/02/a044be50-f394-11eb-a636-18cac59a98dc_story.html

6. The Ethiopian Govt continues to punish innocent Tigrayans through food blockades and massacres as a military strategy, because they are unable to defeat TDF on the battlefield. The world cannot keep turning away from these crimes against humanity. #HumeraMassacre @UNGeneva

It is critical that the @UN & @IntlCrimCourt demand @PMEthiopia to release all wrongly detained Tigrayans. @mbachelet @antonioguterres @JosepBorrellF https://www.amnesty.org/en/latest/news/2021/07/ethiopia-end-arbitrary-detentions-of-tigrayans-activists-and-journalists-in-addis-ababa-and-reveal-whereabouts-of-unaccounted-detainees/

This includes civilians, journalists and those from opposition parties. #TigrayMassArrest @antonioguterres @JosepBorrellF https://twitter.com/mbachelet/status/1420390083983646725

9. The systematic mass arrest of Tigrayans in Ethiopia is at an alarming rate. Tigrayans are being sent to internment camps. Ethnicity is not a crime.

The Ethiopian govt has also concealed the whereabouts of unaccounted detainees. #TigrayMassArrest @UNHOP @wienerlibrary @PrevGenocide @GCR2P https://www.reuters.com/article/us-ethiopia-conflict-tigrayans-idUSKBN2CO0VF

It’s time for world leaders to act. #TigrayMassArrest @eucopresident @FMCastaldo @czorrinho @pressfreedom https://omnatigray.org/on-the-mass-detainment-of-tigrayans-and-ethnic-discrimination/

7. Jeopardizing the safety of humanitarian workers & keeping aid from reaching Tigray is a gross violation against human rights. This must be addressed by world leaders. #TigrayMassArrest @JuttaUrpilainen @SecYellen @davidmcallister @tomastobe @Mariearenaps https://omnatigray.org/on-the-mass-detainment-of-tigrayans-and-ethnic-discrimination/

9. The mass detainment, ethnic discrimination, and targeting of Tigrayans across Ethiopia is not indicative of a government acting in the best interest of its citizens! #TigrayMassArrest @BaerbelKofler @ecrgroup @AnnLinde @EUAmbUS @antonioguterres https://apnews.com/article/africa-race-and-ethnicity-racial-injustice-b1a97f2569592f499565bfb6e673dc3d

10.

11. Stop criminalizing Tigray’s identity and take action against the mass arrests being executed all over Ethiopia. Why has the Tigray identity been portrayed as pure evil?#TigrayMassArrest #TigrayGenocide @POTUS @UNHumanRights @ScottMorrisonMP @SenatorAbetz

12. International leaders, please stop supporting the strategic discrimination towards the civilians of Tigray. Your authority doesn’t only require words but actions. Action saves lives. Where do you stand?#TigrayMassArrest @IntlCrimCourt @EUCouncil @ScottMorrisonMP @NickMcKim

13. For nine months the people of Tigray have been inflicted by barbaric and inhumane acts that cannot be undone. Why are world leaders still allowing a dictator to run #ETH ? #TigrayMassArrest @POTUS @UNHumanRights @IntlCrimCourt @SenatorWong@MarisePayne @ZedSeselja

14. The ongoing discrimination of Tigrayans throughout Ethiopia is part of a larger effort of erasure & genocide. It is imperative that the Intl. community call it what it is – #TigrayGenocide. Eritrean, Amhara, & #ETH forces must be held accountable. #TigrayMassArrest @USAmbUN @VP

15. On Thursday 15th July, Kibrom Berhe, of Baytona Political Party was arrested and taken to an unknown location. The @IntlCrimCourt must intervene in light of these egregious human rights offenses. #TigrayMassArrest #TigrayGenocide @article19org @JamesDuddridge

16. The harassment of Tigrayans across Ethiopia is proof of @AbiyAhmedAli’s agenda to subjugate all Tigrayans. Another arbitrary arrest is that of Kibrom Berhe of the Baytona Party – he was arrested on July 15th and taken to an unknown location. #TigrayMassArrest @article19org

#TigrayMassArrest – 3

1. Amid growing anti-Tigrayan propaganda in Ethiopia, Tigrayans throughout the country have been targets of discrimination and violence by the state. #TigrayMassArrest must be condemned and stopped. #TigrayGenocide @UNHumanRights @JACL_National @wienerlibrary @GerrySimpsonHRW

2. .@AbiyAhmedAli labeled Tigrayans as a ‘cancer, a devil & invasive weed that must be uprooted’.

3. The collective punishment of Tigrayans extends beyond the Tigray region. Tigrayans in and around Addis Ababa have had their constitutional rights violated by their own government. Stop #TigrayMassArrest @RepCicilline @RepMcCaul @RepSpanberger @timkaine https://www.amnesty.org/en/latest/news/2021/07/ethiopia-end-arbitrary-detentions-of-tigrayans-activists-and-journalists-in-addis-ababa-and-reveal-whereabouts-of-unaccounted-detainees/

4. This campaign of collective punishment and subjugation is a clear violation of international law. End all trade agreements with Ethiopia and Eritrea until #TigrayMassArrest and #TigrayGenocide stop. @POTUS @StateDept @HouseForeign @SenateForeign https://www.amnesty.org/en/latest/news/2021/07/ethiopia-end-arbitrary-detentions-of-tigrayans-activists-and-journalists-in-addis-ababa-and-reveal-whereabouts-of-unaccounted-detainees/

5. Since November 2020, thousands of Tigrayans in Ethiopian cities, including Addis Ababa, have been unlawfully detained; their bank accounts frozen, and dismissed from their jobs. The world must stop turning a blind eye. #TigrayMassArrest @EP_President @Europarl_EN @Haavisto

6. As of April 2021, over 300 Tigrayans are being unlawfully detained in an inhumane warehouse just south of Ethiopia’s capital city. We need independent investigations of #TigrayGenocide & #TigrayMassArrest. @FilippoGrandi @USAmbUN @DicarloRosemary @Haavisto @UNReliefChief @hrw

7. .@MSF team members were killed in the Tigray region. As a result, MSF has suspended sending aid in Tigray, further impacting critical aid being delivered. These acts of violence and #TigrayMassArrest must be condemned. @antonioguterres @sanchezcastejon https://www.cbsnews.com/news/united-nations-humanitarian-workers-attacks-warning/

8. .@NobelPrize laureate turned war criminal @AbiyAhmedAli, has weaponized rape and famine against the populace in Tigray; consistent with the mass arbitrary arrests of Tigrayans outside of the region. Australia must speak up and ACT NOW! @tanya_plibersek #TigrayMassArrest

9. Australia is duty-bound to pressure @AbiyAhmedAli’s government to cease mass arbitrary arrests, criminalising Tigrayan citizens outside of the region with no rational motive. ACT NOW! @pmc_gov_au @Birmo @TonySmithMP @SenatorRyan #TigrayMassArrest #TigrayGenocide

10. In the new phase into the #TigrayGenocide, police have arbitrarily detained hundreds of Tigrayans in Addis Ababa, exposed as a “nationwide crackdown on ethnic Tigrayans”. @AlexHawkeMP @davidhurleyHS @JoshFrydenberg #TigrayMassArrest #TigrayGenocide https://www.reuters.com/world/africa/hundreds-tigrayans-detained-ethiopian-capital-recent-weeks-witnesses-say-2021-07-15/

11. .@AbiyAhmedAli is increasingly & deliberately arresting Tigrayans in #ETH simply because of their ethnicity❗️Yet, @luigidimaio & @MarinaSereni continue to merely issue abstract and ineffective statements on #TigrayMassArrest. Why? @EUCouncil @eu_echo https://apnews.com/article/africa-race-and-ethnicity-racial-injustice-b1a97f2569592f499565bfb6e673dc3d

12. Dictator @AbiyAhmedAli intensified his attacks on the press by abducting, beating & robbing local reporters & deporting independent journalists. @corradoformigli @gadlernertweet @zdizoro help your colleagues by condemning #TigrayMassArrest @CPJAfrica https://omnatigray.org/on-the-mass-detainment-of-tigrayans-and-ethnic-discrimination/

13. Nine months of #TigrayGenocide!”Tigrayans in Addis have been arbitrarily arrested & detained without due process in what appears as ethnically motivated detention” cit. @amnesty.Why is Draghi ignoring @AbiyAhmedAli’s #TigrayMassArrest ? @amnestyitalia https://www.amnesty.org/en/get-involved/take-action/end-the-arbitrary-arrests-of-tigrayans/

15. Unlawful arbitrary arrests of Tigrayans continues to take place in Ethiopia. As of today Kibrom Berhe of Baytona Party, was arrested without reason in Addis Ababa. Federal police continue to abuse their power and refuse to follow legal protocol. #TigrayMassArrest @article19org

16. The campaign to continue targeting and harassing Tigrayans across Ethiopia has intensified as invading forces face defeat in Tigray. The arrest of leader of Baytona Pol. Party, Kibrom Berhe, in Addis Ababa on 15th July 2021 is proof of that. #TigrayMassArrest @article19org

#TigrayMassArrest – 4

1. “We condemn these mass arrests of journalists, which clearly aim to deter independent investigative reporting on the war in Tigray” @ArnoFrog of @RSF_inter.@Palazzo_Chigi @Montecitorio & @SenatoStampa need to condemn @AbiyAhmedAli’s #TigrayMassArrest! https://rsf.org/en/news/rsf-decries-wave-arrests-ethiopia

12. Thousands of Tigrayans are being unlawfully detained, and out of reach of family and lawyers. Are innocent civilians undeserving of rights in @AbiyAhmedAli’s Ethiopia, just because they’re ethnic Tigrayan? #TigrayMassArrest@ONU_fr @francediplo_EN @EmmanuelMacron

#AnnexingTigray 6

#AnnexingTigray 1

1. Towns, cities & villages in western Tigray have Tigrayan names, this is the first indication that they’ve always been a part of Tigray. Yet Ethiopian & Amhara forces have ethnically cleansed Tigrayans from these lands. #AnnexingTigray @FilippoGrandi @EP_President @CoryBooker

2. The Genocidal war waged on Tigray by the Ethiopian government has allowed neighboring Amhara forces to commit ethnic cleansing in western Tigray by taking land belonging to Tigray.#AnnexingTigray @IntlCrimCourt @EUCouncil @TheCWIS @MinorityRightshttps://foreignpolicy.com/2021/04/28/ethiopia-tigray-war-amhara-abiy-ahmed-expansionism/

3. Western Tigray was given away to Amhara by EMP Haile Selassie as a way to punish Tigrayans for not kneeling to his dictatorship. Today, we see @AbiyAhmedAli repeating this same act, displacing millions solely due to their ethnicity. #AnnexingTigray @tomastobe @AnnLinde @UN

4. Amahara forces entered W. Tigray in support of the Ethiopian military. Since their invasion into the Tigrayan populated towns, they’ve committed every crime against humanity imaginable! #AnnexingTigray@CoryBooker @endrapeinwar @BernieSanders @FMCastaldo https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2021/4/21/a-tigrayan-womb-should-never-give-birth-rape-in-ethiopia-tigray

5. Tigrayans living in the western town of Humera are under severe threat, again. Many have been demanded by Amhara forces to leave their homes within 24 hours. Ethnic cleansing and #AnnexingTigray must stop. @KarimKhanQC @UN4Indigenous @USAmbUNhttps://www.garoweonline.com/en/world/africa/report-amhara-troops-attacking-tigray-people-in-humera-and-alamata

6. “We told the Amhara that we don’t have a safe route to leave: the border with Sudan is closed & we are prevented from moving..” Many are still being starved, abused and traumatized during #TigrayGenocide. @GerrySimpsonHRW @SecBlinken #AnnexingTigrayhttps://www.garoweonline.com/en/world/africa/report-amhara-troops-attacking-tigray-people-in-humera-and-alamata

7. It is critical that the world understands @AbiyAhmedAli’s political & economic ambitions by use of #TigrayGenocide, and now #AnnexingTigray. He has broken countless Int’l. laws in attempts to secure his throne. @CSORG @CommonsForeign @TheDemocrats @Ilhan https://www.cnn.com/2021/06/30/africa/ethiopia-tigray-conflict-explained-intl/index.html

8. “The Amhara militia are going door to door. If they know you are a Tigrayan they kill or arrest you. We feel bad because it is our country.” The ethnic cleansing of Tigrayans from their ancestral lands must stop. #AnnexingTigray @IFADEastAfrica @eu_eeas http://a.msn.com/0G/en-xl/AAMcE2B?ocid=st

9. Invading forces have brutally targeted civilians & infrastructure. Immediate & verifiable withdrawal of Amhara militias & Ethiopian & Eritrean forces is needed from all areas of Tigray, including falsely reclaimed areas.#AnnexingTigray @vonderleyenhttps://www.theguardian.com/global-development/2021/may/14/bodies-are-being-eaten-by-hyenas-girls-of-eight-raped

10. New reports of genocide in Alamata & Humera. Ethiopia’s genocidal war on Tigray is sheer terrorism on the average citizen.

3. Abiy Ahmed is committing #TigrayGenocide in order to secure his dream of becoming Ethiopia’s 7th king. He has adopted Emperor Haile Selassie’s imperial governing styles & land annexation strategy to achieve this. #AnnexingTigray @CDU_CSU_EP @eu_echo https://omnatigray.org/amhara-expansionism/

4. Ethiopia is mobilizing militias from all over to support Amhara Forces in committing genocide against the people of Tigray. The inaction of @IntlCrimCourt has enabled #TigrayGenocide. All invaders must withdraw. #AnnexingTigray @USUN @franceonu @VPhttps://www.reuters.com/world/africa/three-more-regions-reinforce-ethiopia-army-amhara-against-tigray-forces-2021-07-16/

5. “The Amhara militia are going door to door.

6. In March, @SecBlinken told @HouseForeign that ethnic cleansing was ongoing in W. Tigray. Amhara Forces are #AnnexingTigray & committing another wave of killings. @IntlCrimCourt must recognize #TigrayGenocide & act to stop it. @StateDept @SCRtweets @AOChttps://amp.cnn.com/cnn/2021/03/10/politics/blinken-tigray-ethnic-cleansing/index.html#click=https://t.co/fKbB8x3BRD

7. Tigrayan families are being uprooted from their ancestral homes by brute force. The annexation of western Tigray must end so those violently displaced can return to their homes and begin to heal the putrid wounds from #TigrayGenocide. #AnnexingTigray @JakeSullivan46 @EUAmbUS

8. .@AbiyAhmedAli’s fantasy of becoming “7th King” is sending Ethiopia into a downward spiral. Scapegoating opposition parties is a method to gain his power. When will the @UN|SC step in & protect innocent civilians from this tyrant? #AnnexingTigray @UNPeacekeeping @EUCouncil @HRC

9. Ethnic profiling of Tigrayans has extended to Ethiopia’s capital, Addis Ababa. The rising hate speech against Tigrayans, primarily by PM @AbiyAhmedAli is fueling the #TigrayGenocide. #AnnexingTigray@PalomaUnicef @UNSRCulture @UNGeneva @WhiteHousehttps://addisstandard.com/news-analysis-fresh-wave-of-arbitrary-arrest-of-tigrayans-in-addis-abeba-rights-commission-says-it-is-monitoring-the-situation-fed-police-deny-arrests-target-tigrayans/

10. There are reports of renewed killing & torture in Western Tigray. How can appointed leaders still stand by as peoples’ livelihood & identities are stripped away by Amhara forces?

2. The Ethiopian Govt. is actively working to kill, intimidate & starve Tigrayans. #AnnexingTigray is a form of this ethnic cleansing. All invading troops must withdraw from Tigray & the @UN must verify that they do. @NorwayUN @EstoniaUN @UKUN_NewYork @USAmbUN @Niger_ONU

3. “My village was peaceful. I had a great hotel, and a huge house,” says 60-year-old Berhan, reminiscing about her life before the war.#AnnexingTigray must stop. It is inhumane to force people from their ancestral home. @EU_Commission @JanezLenarcichttps://www.rescue.org/article/three-refugee-women-describe-whats-happening-tigray

4. “War makes for bitter men. Heartless and savage men,” Ethiopia’s PM @AbiyAhmedAli said when he received the @NobelPrize, only for him to turn around to wage a genocidal war in his own country. #AnnexingTigray is Abiy’s next quest to gain power. @JuttaUrpilainen @UNOSAPG @USUN

5. Amhara forces are attacking inhabitants of western Tigray in order to unlawfully expand their rule. They are systematically starving & taking homes from Tigrayans. @UN, when will you exercise your Responsibility to Protect? #AnnexingTigray @AmbMKimani @USAmbUN @antonioguterres

6. There are extremely horrific genocidal crimes committed on Tigrayans in the western town of Humera in Tigray. Extrajudicial killings, rapes, beheadings and intentional starvation. This quest of #AnnexingTigray must stop.@HouseForeign @SenateForeign @SecBlinken @LindaT_G

7. The #TigrayGenocide is rooted in a desperate attempt at Amhara expansion for political and economic gain. @AbiyAhmedAli is focused on hate, power & profit – NOT peace & unity in Ethiopia. @StateDept @HouseForeign @andersoncooper @Trevornoah @ChrisCuomo https://www.nytimes.com/2021/07/11/world/africa/tigray-guerrilla-fighers-ethiopia-army.html

8. Ethiopia has shown through brutal acts of violence that it will rape Tigray, literally and figuratively. The gruesome sexual violence on women, the looting of historical artifacts and now by #AnnexingTigray. This is a Genocide. @KarimKhanQC @EUCouncil @DicarloRosemary @UNOSAPG

9. When will the @UN Security Council and the @IntlCrimCourt take #TigrayGenocide serious?There are renewed killings in Humera, Tigray.Amhara militia are terrorizing Tigrayan civilians through beatings, killings, and unlawful detainment. @NorwayUN @USUN @Niger_ONU

10. We urge the Intl. community to officially recognize the genocide of #AnnexingTigray by Amhara Forces & Amhara Fano militia in western Tigray as genocide, not just an ethnic cleansing. #TigrayGenocide@IntlCrimCourt @Ilhan @EU_Commission @UNReliefChiefhttps://www.bbc.com/news/world-africa-57818673?xtor=AL-72-%5Bpartner%5D-%5Bmicrosoft%5D-%5Bheadline%5D-%5Bnews%5D-%5Bbizdev%5D-%5Bisapi%5D

11. “Beginning her journey at 3am, she wandered into the barren outskirts of her hometown, waking through thickets of thorns that tore at her skin.” How many more refugees in order for leaders to exercise concern? @USAmbUN @eu_eeas @Haavisto #AnnexingTigray https://www.rescue.org/article/three-refugee-women-describe-whats-happening-tigray

12. Azmera fled Humera & saw the casualties firsthand. Young people who felt they had no reason to flee had been slaughtered. “They were only civilians,” she said. “Peaceful young adults who were unarmed.”#AnnexingTigray #TigrayGenocide @DicarloRosemaryhttps://www.rescue.org/article/three-refugee-women-describe-whats-happening-tigray

#AnnexingTigray 4

1. “Women that have been raped say that the things that they say to them when they were raping them is that they need to change their identity — to either Amharize them … & that they’ve come…to cleanse the blood line.” #AnnexingTigray @IntlCrimCourt https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.cnn.com/cnn/2021/03/19/africa/ethiopia-tigray-rape-investigation-cmd-intl/index.html

2. All historical evidence showcases that western Tigray has always been ancestral land of the Tigrayans. Intl. leaders must push Amhara forces to evacuate western Tigray & bring all forcibly displaced people back to their home. #AnnexingTigray @IntlCrimCourt @IENearth @UNDPPA

3. #ChildrenOfTigray are facing gruesome acts of genocide by Amhara forces. Children as young as 8 years old have been raped. Millions are displaced, and millions more are being starved. #AnnexingTigray @RepSaraJacobs @YoungKimCA @RepTedLieu @AmbassadorRicehttps://www.theguardian.com/global-development/2021/may/14/bodies-are-being-eaten-by-hyenas-girls-of-eight-raped

4. Tigray was annexed by Haile Selassie & given to Amharas, as a form of retaliation on Tigrayans for rebelling against his brutal regime during the 1st Woyane Rebellion. Amhara expansionist claim on W. Tigray comes from this. #AnnexingTigray. @Ilhan @CSORGhttps://www.hrw.org/reports/pdfs/e/ethiopia/ethiopia.919/c3wollo.pdf

5. “It is reported that Amhara militia & Ethiopian forces are instructing Tigrayans to destroy their Tigrayan IDs & replace them with Amhara IDs. These civilians are ordered to denounce their Tigrayan identity…” @hrw @mbachelet @Haavisto #AnnexingTigray https://omnatigray.org/amhara-expansionism/

6. .@vrtnws journalist saw many empty houses in Western Tigray.”They say they don’t know by whom, but there are indications that they are being chased away. I have the feeling that the Tigreans were no longer welcome there.” #AnnexingTigray @NorwayUN @USUNhttps://nos.nl/l/2361577

7. In this @vrtnws documentary, a man tells the journalist about houses being set afire after the fighting stopped. The man tells him only Tigrayan owned houses were burned. This is genocide. #AnnexingTigray@RepKarenBass @EUatUN @DarrellIssahttps://t.co/BWsdyIpLE7

8. Fighters and officials from the Amhara region are “deliberately and efficiently rendering Western Tigray ethnically homogeneous through the organized use of force and intimidation,” the US report said in March.#AnnexingTigray @KenyaMissionUN @VietNam_UNhttps://www.nytimes.com/2021/02/26/world/middleeast/ethiopia-tigray-ethnic-cleansing.html

Tigray is getting intense right now,” said surgeon Tewodros Tefera, who fled to Sudan. #AnnexingTigray @HouseForeign @eu_eeashttps://www.bbc.com/news/world-africa-57818673

11. “We had a decent livelihood back home,” says Azmera. “We had freedom & lived a good life.” But when violence erupted, she could no longer access her bank account. Why is @AbiyAhmedAli allowed to steal from innocent civilians? @SecYellen#AnnexingTigrayhttps://www.rescue.org/article/three-refugee-women-describe-whats-happening-tigray

12. Eritrean & #ETH???????? forces are still in Tigray up until now. They are a threat to the livelihood of Tigrayans. They’ve committed acts of rape & to ignore it’s happening is a grave injustice. #AnnexingTigray @RepKarenBass @RepBera @RepJuanVargas @UN_Women https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ECo0sByGmiQ

2. Tigrayans have been forcefully removed from parts of western Tigray by Amhara militias, and are now displaced. The Ethiopian Govt has given these militias the green light to conduct this genocide. #AnnexingTigray @Haavisto @CyrilRamaphosa @RaoufMazou @UNGeneva @UNHumanRights

3. Unconstitutional adjustment of territories by force should not be tolerated. Acts of genocide against Tigrayans must be condemned by the international community. Silence is complicity. #AnnexingTigray #TigrayGenocide @hrw @RegSprecher @EmmanuelMacron @EUSR_Weber @Europarl_EN

4. The Tigray-Amhara boundary should be resolved by constitutional means, not by violent force. Expelling Tigrayans from ancestral land is not only unconstitutional, but is ethnic cleansing. @CourPenaleInt @thinkper @pnudfr #AnnexingTigray #TigrayGenocide https://nyti.ms/2WeE5vT

5. Ethiopian expansionists claim territory on the basis that the Tigrayans will either be expelled from western Tigray or become Amharas in the future.

6. Amhara militias have looted & burned the homes, farms, and livestock of Tigrayans in west Tigray.

9. Residents of Qafta Humera, a place that once was feeding more than just its population, are now “left with nothing to eat” after Amhara militias looted & destroyed their villages, burned crops & livestock. #AnnexingTigray @EstoniaUN @MexOnu @NorwayUNhttps://tinyurl.com/u27k5cm2

1. “Almost everyone is on the verge of death -our eyes are affected by the hunger, the situation is perilous.” How much longer will leaders allow the Ethiopian Govt to block aid without repercussions?#AnnexingTigray @JosepBorrellF @antonioguterres @USUNhttps://www.bbc.com/news/world-africa-57397901

2. “Along with inviting foreign invaders such as Eritrean and Somali forces to unleash terror on the Tigray region, Abiy Ahmed’s administration has made an attempt to legitimize land grabbing and Amhara expansionism.” #AnnexingTigray @EUCouncil @SecBlinkenhttps://omnatigray.org/amhara-expansionism/

3. Abiy Ahmed must be pressured to restore public services including internet, electricity, water, banking, transportation & telecommunications. Denying these needs is only exacerbating the crisis.#AnnexingTigray #TigrayGenocide@SpeakerPelosi @SecYellenhttps://www.bbc.com/news/57929853

4. Areas in western & southern Tigray remain hard to reach. @AbiyAhmedAli will block aid, deny it, and show no remorse – not even for murdered aid workers. When can we rely on world leaders to act? @sanchezcastejon @MexOnu @USAmbUN @UNOSAPG #AnnexingTigray https://www.bbc.com/news/57929853

5. Mass detention & profiling of Tigrayans throughout Ethiopia is a method to dehumanize civilians.@AbiyAhmedAli & Isaias Afwerki are guilty of countless human rights abuses and need to face the @IntlCrimCourt for all their crimes. #AnnexingTigray@SenateDems @HRC

6. “I was carried over the river,” she says, describing the moment she crossed to Sudan. “My legs just couldn’t walk anymore.” Tigrayans are living in fear & if forced to leave their homes, they will embark on a dangerous journey. @UN_HRC #AnnexingTigrayhttps://www.rescue.org/article/three-refugee-women-describe-whats-happening-tigray

7. Annexation of western Tigray is politically motivated to eliminate Tigrayan identity, culture and language. Tigrayans are told either to “go back home” or “shift identity” to be Amhara. #AnnexingTigray must stop.@RepMcCaul @GerryConnolly @RepSpanbergerhttps://foreignpolicy.com/2021/04/28/ethiopia-tigray-war-amhara-abiy-ahmed-expansionism/

8. Amhara forces took advantage of @AbiyAhmedAli’s genocidal war to annex Tigray. They’ve displaced over 1.1 million Tigrayans & have indulged in massacres, sexual violence, arbitrary arrests & destruction of villages. #AnnexingTigray @JanezLenarcic @SenatorMenendez @RonWyden

9. Humanitarian response in Tigray remains challenged by a lack of food, supplies, communication services & no commercial supply chain. Appointed leaders must take action to pressure Abiy Ahmed to restore public services. @AmbMKimani @antonioguterres @USUNhttps://www.voanews.com/africa/food-aid-remains-out-reach-millions-tigray

10. Fertile farmlands of southern & western Tigray is a source of major agricultural produce for the region. The Amharas claim of the land is simply to deprive Tigray from being agriculturally & economically self-reliant. #AnnexingTigray @HouseForeign @HouseofCommons @HeikoMaas
