🚨 NEW REPORT by Human Rights Watch @hrw & Physicians for Human Rights @P4HR reveals grave human rights abuses across #Ethiopia.
This thread focuses on Tigray's acute crisis amid Ethiopia's widespread human rights violations.
@WHO @WFP @USAID @UNESCO @_AfricanUnion @OAS_official 1️⃣ Armed Conflict: Since 2019, #Ethiopia's human rights situation has drastically deteriorated. Reports implicate Ethiopian government forces, militia groups, and Eritrean troops in atrocities during ongoing conflicts, affecting civilians across multiple regions.

Cervical cancer affects half a million people annually, but with proper screening, prevention, and treatment, the burden & mortality can be greatly reduced. The #TigraySiege in Ethiopia has resulted in Tigrayan women losing access to these vital services. @WomenforWomen @GaviSeth 99% of cervical cancer is caused by high-risk human papillomaviruses (HPV), a common sexually transmitted virus. To prevent cervical cancer, effective vaccines are administered. Yet, in #Tigray, vaccines have neither been accessible nor available b/c of the humanitarian blockade.
