@sec_council

Connecting the dots as @sec_council continues to dither on the #WarOnTigray:

1/9 The 'hidden' war on #Tigray is active as well as the atrocities on #Tigray.
@reda_getachew also provided some insight from the ground.

@UN

2/9 On top of all the weaponry, #Ethiopia is engaged in the mass starvation of the people of #Tigray. This is a war crime that warrants an immediate @UN intervention.

3/9 The failure to enforce international rules has given Abiy and Isaias a carte blanch to jail, kill, loot, destruct, commit genocide and war crimes. It’s reprehensible not to use all available leverage to stop such appalling violations.

@vercrus

4/9 The level of brutalities in #Tigray are beginning to emerge. Gruesome accounts are being reported. These could have been minimised or avoided with a timely and principled action.

@KenRoth

5/9 The regime in #Ethiopia is at free will to even harass international academics and analysts. It transpires they have something to hide as @KenRoth also remarked.

@KjetilTronvoll provides an excellent rebuttal,

6/9 The Amhara militia backed by EDF and Eritrean forces committed gross atrocities in #Tigray. Emboldened by the lack of accountability, the Amhara militia appear once again at the forefront of the war with #Sudan.

7/9 #Eritrea has a long history of destabilising the region. There are reports of Eritrea’s involvement in the war with #Sudan. This is a direct outcome of the failure by the international law enforcers to unequivocally condemn #Eritreas’s destructive role in #Tigray.

@RAbdiAnalyst

8/9 #Eritrea is expelling #Egypt’s ambassador as noted by @RAbdiAnalyst. Due to the lack of concrete action on the #WarOnTigray, at least #Tigray, #Ethiopia, #Eritrea, #Sudan & #Egypt are embroiled in a complex international war in one form or another.

@GebrekirstosG

9/9 For any entity even remotely considering the #WarOnTigray as a 'law enforcement operation', @GebrekirstosG has an in depth and a well-researched piece.
