1/4 The .@realDonaldTrump adminstration, especially @SecPompeo, @AsstSecStateAF and the US Ambassador in Addis Michael Raynor have given @AbiyAhmedAli the green light to commit war crimes in #Tigray.
2/4 They are giving him the diplomatic shield he needs while he is committing despicable atrocities on the people of #Tigray hoping he will be able to eliminate the TPLF. Saving Abiy for them is about saving the little liberal democracy project they have implanted in the Horn.
3/4 They are using the remaining one month they will stay in power to salvage what is left of what is otherwise a crumbling @AbiyAhmedAli's administration. Little do they know TPLF and the #Tigray people will survive this one way or another.
4/4 The approach the @realDonaldTrump administration will put the US reputation and credibility on the line.

1/3 After so much effort, #Tigray|an engineers have restored mobile communication within the region. @AbiyAhmedAli has blocked all means of communication to the region to commit genocide-like war crimes in the dark. Though Tigray is still cut off from the rest of the world,
2/3 the regional level mobile communication will at least help families within the region find out about the safety of their loved ones in #Tigray.
Let the world be put on notice. This is a crucial lifeline for people who have not heard from their family members for 18 days now.
3/3 Let the world know that .@AbiyAhmedAli may use the #UAE drones to bomb the mobile communication in Tigray infrastructure just like he did the Tekeze Dam and the Wolkait sugar factory.

1/5 It has been a week since I talked to my parents and siblings who live in #Tigray. Every morning I wake up, the first thing i do is pickup my phone and check the news on twitter, facebook and other outlets to know which cities in Tigray .@AbiyAhmedAli has cluster-bombed using
2/5 his warplanes. The #Ethiopia|n government has shutdown phone, internet services to the #Tigray region. But I still hopelessly call my mom's number. Imagine how difficult it is to not be able to check on your elderly parents while COVID-19 is ravaging the nation.
3/5 The #Ethiopian government has already closed all banks, cut all food-aid programs and blocked all transport mechanisms to the region. The suffering of those who need immediate medical attention and food-aid is unimaginable.

Indiscriminate and blanket arrests are being made by Abiy’s security men in thousands.
The current mayor of Addis, Adanech Ababie, was on record officially stating that she was grateful receiving actionable reports of suspicion on 2000 Tigreans in a single day.
Residents and ordinary people are being mobilized against their neighbors and colleagues, and encouraged to suspect and report on any Tigrean.
The on-going propaganda of social-militarization has eroded standard values of decency and sanity in our societies,
