43 floating bodies on Tekeze river attracted huge international attention and Amhara forces have started dumping bodies elsewhere. Quotes from article ⬇️ #TigrayGenocide #TigrayMassArrest #HumeraMassacre #Justice4TigraysWomenandGirls #AllowAccessToTigray telegraph.co.uk/world-news/202…
“Elderly people, children & pregnant women have all been taken to several detention centres and three different warehouses across the city, which have been turned into makeshift ‘concentration camps’, survivors said.” #TigrayMassArrest #TigrayGenocide
“imagery analysis by Vigil Monitor (previously DX Open Network), an atrocity early warning & detection research organisation based in the UK, shows that ethnic Amhara forces & allied Ethiopian troops have been at all the centres for the past few months.”
Gizau escaped by convincing militiamen he was not fully ethnic Tigrayan, “We were 250 detainees. The Amhara forces take detainees every night and bring new ones. The ones they take never come back," he said. #TigrayGenocide #HumeraMassacre #TigrayMassArrest #NeverAgain
“Gizau and ten other witnesses said that people were being killed and dumped in pits around the three warehouses and in craters outside the city.” #TigrayGenocide #HumeraMassacre #AllowAccessToTigray
“Satellite imagery partially corroborates the sources. It shows a pit roughly the size of a swimming pool outside one of the warehouses, which has been gradually filled up since mid-July.” #TigrayGenocide #CallItAGenocide #NeverAgain #AllowAccessToTigray #TigrayMassArrest
“There is a similar pattern of suspicious pits being filled up slowly over the same time period at the other locations.”
"There are very suspicious holes in the ground next to the camps, in an area where no other hole gets filled with earth," Alexander Lee -Vigil Monitor analyst
On 15 July, Amhara forces held a public meeting in Humera to decide the fate of Tigrayans in the areas they controlled. 
"They said this; 'We should exterminate all Tigrayan residents in the city. We must cleanse them all," said one man who claims he attended the public meeting.
Multiple residents said that a massive campaign of arrests started soon after the meeting.

Agegnuh Teshager & Ethiopia|n Prime Minister's Office were both approached for comment on The Telegraph's findings but neither responded. #TigrayGenocide #CallItAGenocide #HumeraMassacre
