THREAD Meles Bisrat has been active for a long time as a very vocal opposition voice of #TPLF. He is from #Tigray from Mai Kadra. His mom still lives there according to one of his posts and he is a vocal and diehard supporter of #AbiyAhmed. He has been supporting the war. 1/6
The gravity of atrocities and cruelty is even pushing people like him to state the obvious, #TigrayGenocide. Here is my verbatim translation of his facebook post above from today. “A heinous act of cruelty history will not forgive is taking place in Mai Kadra.

plant technologies to be established as part of Sheba Tannery in #Wukro (now destroyed/looted by #Eritrean forces). He knew I was a novice. He still was glad to see me give it a shot. He handed me the tender document. I cherished it so much (and partly, I am a collector par 2/5
