The video clip here👇which's released by Walta TV (one of the Ethiopian regime's prop machines) shows a compilation of combat scenes by the Ethiopian genocidal troops during the #WarOnTigray.
From phone calls with our families and friends, and countless reports, we have heard that Ethiopian and Eritrean troops shelled villages and towns indiscriminately without any clear target and without any evidence of the presence of Tigray Defence Forces in the areas they shelled
The video here confirms these reports and rumors. Throughout the video, there is not a single sight of an "enemy" weapon or a soldier. The only things visible in the areas they targeted are few farmhouses. In central Tigray, where I come from,
Nazi horror didn't start with the Holocaust. It started with the systematic dehumanization of the jews.
In Ethiopia, a regime-led dehumanization campaign consisting the production of fake documentaries, language of @AbiyAhmedAli and other public "figures",
.and a fascistic art community led to the presentation of Tigrayans as existential threat to Ethiopia who should be 'wiped out' in order to save the country from disintegration or to Make Ethiopia Great Again (ኢትዮጵያን ወደ ነበረችበት ከፍታ እንድትመለስ as they say).
This is not a hiden conspiracy or somrthing. Ethiopian regime authorities as well as ordinary supporters on social media actively argue for it. Everything that's happening in #Tigray should seen in this context. The indiscriminate killings, #TigrayGenocide newsweek.com/ethiopia-vowed…
"If this force [TPLF & Tigrayan political elites] had quietly joined the Prosperity Party, it could've remained in power with all the wealth that it stole and everything. The decision to not join the Prosperity Party,...
"Even when it went to Tigray, it could've quietly remained in power as a regional government. We wouldn't at least have fought it. [...]. What did it lose [due to the war]?. Each and every single mother of Tigray knows the cost of the war."
Collective trauma of the #WarOnTigray on Tigrayan children:
The #WarOnTigray is perhaps one of the most under-reported and the bloodiest events in Africa in recent decades. Over 52,000 civilians have reportedly been killed as of last week, washingtonpost.com/world/africa/t…
more than 60k crossed the border to Sudan for safety, over 4.5 million face starvation as their harvests are looted & destroyed by Ethiopian & Eritrean armies.
But, what is most distressing is the trauma that the war is leaving Tigrayan children with. As towns and villages across Tigray have constantly been bombed for the last 3 months, children have seen so much that will remain with them forever.
"Doctors at Mekele’s main hospital say rape survivors are turning up injured and in tears. More women are seeking counseling, testing for sexually transmitted infections, emergency contraception and abortions. Girls as young as 12 are among those attacked, researchers say." 💔
"...armed groups have looted and ransacked medical facilities across Tigray, making it difficult for survivors of rape and other crimes to access emergency care" Lucy Kassa latimes.com/world-nation/s…
Lucy Kassa was targeted by the Ethiopian regime's security agents for writing the harrowing story of rape victims of the #WarOnTigray. #TigrayGenocide is being carried out in the dark.
After 64 days, I finally managed to talk to someone who travelled on foot for 3 days to reach #Mekelle from Rubagered, a village in central #Tigray where I grew up and where my parents live. Hearing a familiar voice over the phone gave me goosebumps.
What he told me about what's going on in our villages is heartbreaking. He told me that there's been at least 5 rounds of heavy fights & the invading #EritreanArmy still controlls the area.
In Rubagered, my home village, he confirmed that the #EritreanArmy killed 3 civilians; Birhane Gebru Weldemichel (my 60 year old farmer cousin), Teweldebirhan Weldekidan and Jemal Abdelkadir (a shopkeeper).
