Problematic Framing: if twitter hashtags continue to be the source of intelligence that key policy makers globally defer to, then one ends up taking as truthful for example - the fake Humera massacre that has been trending by TPLF operatives for two weeks now. (1/4)
It is being concocted that Tigray is under a siege or blockade by the GoE. Hence why TPLF waged a confrontation on the Afar entry point to give the impression that the government is blocking humanitarian assistance through that route and hence make demands for other routes. (2/4)
Those who want corridors for weapons and non-humanitarian goods to be routed to them continue to try and manipulate the realities on the ground. As a sovereign nation, GoE determines which route is more suitable to deliver in its responsibility of assistance. (3/4)
Many have misconstrued statements made by the leadership as directed towards our people of Tigray. Words used by the leadership referring to the terrorist TPLF are being pulled out of context to fit an agenda that rings the sirens of dehumanizing rhetoric. (4/4)
