I love the sound of water and great music. They soothe my soul, and I was so excited to visit #NiagaraFalls today.

A friendly Californian guy, a Physicist by profession, I met inside a boat at Niagara falls who noticed my excitement about the waterfall sounds, shook (1/4)
my hand and asked where I am from. I said I am from Tigray. I guess I heard about it but where is Tigray located, he asked. I said Tigray is in Africa, to be precise it is located in East Africa.

We talked about the ongoing genocidal war against my people for a while (2/4)
and the complicity of the international community. He felt sad about the whole situation in Tigray, and he promised that he will read more about Tigray when he gets a chance.  (3/4)
Tigray is in Africa and Tigray is Africa. Read about Tigray and stand against the genocidal war against #Tigrayans. (4/4)

World attn. on #Tigray vs. #Ukraine

"While the world’s eyes are trained on the war in Ukraine and whether Vladimir Putin is unhinged enough to use nuclear weapons, another war rages mostly unseen some 3,000 miles away in Ethiopia." @chicagotribune (1/n)
chicagotribune.com/opinion/commen…
"Accurately estimating the dead while war continues is difficult, but the best estimates available suggest at least half a million people have died so far from direct violence, starvation and lack of access to health care. To put it in perspective, the United Nations " (2/n)
"estimates about 6,000 civilians have been killed in Ukraine so far, and estimates put military deaths in the tens of thousands. Even if these estimates are low, the best available numbers suggest that the scale of death in Ethiopia exceeds that in Ukraine many times over." (3/n)

@achpr_cadhp and its Chairperson is talking about all crises in #Africa, but no word so far on the genocide, war crimes, and crimes against humanity being committed in his backyard. (1/22)

#WarOnTigray
#TigrayGenocide
At a time when clear evidence of horrific acts of crimes against humanity, war crimes, and elements of genocide are emerging from #Tigray, the @SolomonADersso and
@achpr_cadhp are issuing statements on #Uganda and another crisis? (2/22)

#WarCrimes
#WarCrimesOnTigray
Silence by @achpr_cadhp constitutes not only an endorsement of the genocidal war waged against the people of #Tigray, but it also violates the core principle and provisions of the African Union Constitutive Act. (3/22)

After the war broke out in #Tigray, many international media are reporting that more than 950,000 #Tigrayans are believed to be displaced. But what is the root cause of the ethnic Tigrayan migration across the borders? (1/9)
For over a few weeks now, we are collecting incredible facts from the relatives, eye witness, and testimonies on the ground to reflect exactly what happened. The #UN statement which was issued a few days ago reflects part of the concern. (2/9)
But in reality, it is clear that something serious has happened to these people from the western part of Tigray to cross the #Sudan border and save their lives. Sudan's border was opened over the previous years but nobody from Tigray, not at least in this magnitude, has (3/9)
