Now imagine when I found my fieldwork photos unattributed in an edited collection with an actual academic press… book was posted over a decade ago so felt it wasn’t worth following up, but did I get a shock when I saw them.

Last Thursday's strike is eerily similar to a February drone massacre of 30+ people. I produced this visual investigation of it. Since the likes of Turkey, UAE, Iran and China began arming Ethiopia with drones in 2020, thousands of civilians have been killed in strikes.
THREAD: My visual investigation of a drone massacre of 30+ people in Ethiopia, is the cover page story on this weekend's edition of the @thecontinent.bsky.social. With this thread, I'll outline how we identified the massacre location in a war torn region where comms are severed.
