What does the US administration want Tigrayans and Tigray authorities to do, really? Sit and watch the people starve to death until regimes in Addis Ababa and Asmara say enough Tigrayans have died, and Tigray kneels and submits to be ruled by viceroys of Asmara and Addis Ababa? 1

People are starved to death. Thousands are in mass detention. Thousands in refugee camps, millions displaced. Brutal medieval siege choking Tigray out of existence. Abiy's Ethiopia is the epitome of war, death, displacement, detention, extortion, and impoverishment of Tigrayans.

Tigray defends itself. No one has done anything for Tigray. Neither the West nor the East. As a matter of fact, some western and other powers have joined the genocidal war on Tigray- deploying their technology or through third parties supporting the regimes in Addis and Asmara.

Dear Nobel Committee: @NobelPrize @NobelPeaceOslo Your statement brings to mind Pontius Pilate washing his hands of responsibility. Your award came when the war on Tigray was being secretly hatched; and when the Asmera-Addis-Mogadishu axis of instability was in full swing. 1

Peace is what we all crave. We need the fighting to stop right now; we want the siege to be lifted in its entirety right now; adequate humanitarian relief be guaranteed right now, and non-Tigrayan forces to leave Tigray right now; we want the negotiations to commence right now.

The history of Tigray cannot begin and end with this genocide; genocidaires rarely win. With this genocide, a new history of Tigray begins. This genocide will be the frame and the starting point that determines Tigrayans and their future military, political and social stand.

Just read the Report of the International Commission of Human Rights Experts on Ethiopia (ICHREE) to @UN_HRC Long thread: Given the political challenges and the financial and time constraints ICHREE faces, the Report is a refreshing mark of a truly independent investigation. 1

A genocidal war is waged on Tigray because its people refused to kneel down to political and economic hitmen, and surrender policy and territorial sovereignty.

Dear High Commissioner @mbachelet 1. What is urgently needed is a UNSC resolution to establish a UN-mandated investigation into all atrocities and violations of international law, especially war crimes, crimes against humanity, and genocide @antonioguterres @CyrilRamaphosa

Tragic to see a relapse to a preventable military offensive against Tigray by Ethiopia. This fresh military offensive is disastrous for the people of Tigray, who have already gone through unimaginable suffering, for the peoples of Ethiopia and for peace in the Horn of Africa. 1

Thread: Indiscriminate aerial bombardment has killed civilians in Alamat. Not the first time and will not be the last unless the international community acts in unison to end impunity. The @UN_HRC Special Session offers a precious opportunity that must be seized. @nazhatskhan 1

The siege is killing people, so is aerial bombardments and drones attacks. No medicine for bedridden patients. No food aid for the needy. No access to banking services. Mass detention, extortion, and pauperisation of Tigrayans. The extermination of Tigrayans is in full action.
