Protests are continuing across Tigray as IDPs - ethnically cleansed from their land - rise up to demand their right to return home.

From every corner of #Tigray, people are joining them in this fight.

They deserve to go home. They deserve justice. #TigrayGenocide

The civil war in Ethiopia’s Tigray region was one of the deadliest of this century. The conflict ended with a ceasefire in November 2022. In Mekelle, Zeywegih Leyti describes the anxiety of waiting for another war.

Even when students protest, violence against them is unjustifiable. Protests for better conditions should lead to dialogue, not brutality—a clear failure of leadership.

So that’s what this account is going to kinda be about for awhile.

Reading this article is very alarming‼️
If school-aged children aren’t able to attend school, burdened with challenges they didn’t cause, what’ll life look like for them at age 17/18? When they’ve dream of Univ.,will they instead face barriers they can’t overcome?

IDP. A horrible acronym for persons who were forced out of their homes - through genocidal actions in the case of those seeking shelter in Axum. A statistic in the eyes of Europe, and one that remains neglectable as long as they don't try to reach Europe.
