Ethiopia's army is using sexual violence as a "weapon of war" in Tigray, reports #amnety — with gang rape & sexual slavery against hundreds of women & girls.
Fleeing refugees accuse the army of ethnic cleansing, with thousands of ethnic Tigrayans killed since November.

Disinformation campaigns regarding the Tigray genocide extend beyond social media. A recent paper from Leiden University’s African Studies Centre utilizes flawed research & a conspiracy theory to "debunk" the genocide, mass rape, forced starvation, & massacres of Tigrayan civilians.

According to the CoHA agreement, Tigray must be free from #Eritrea’n & Amhara forces before any #DDR discussions.

@MikeHammerUSA , the @StateDept must prioritize a free #Tigray & the return of IDPs to their homeland.

We tried everything - international bodies, parliaments, the press - but who remembers Tigray?

The Pretoria agreement signed in November 2022 requires Tigrayan forces to disarm based on the security situation in Tigray. As part of the DDR process, they initially disengaged within the first month and handed over heavy weapons in January 2022.
