Gender Based Violence is political violence when:

Dear @tomfletcherun.bsky.social, women and girls of Tigray were the primary targets of conflict-related sexual violence by Ethiopia🇪🇹 and Eritrea🇪🇷. Many women remain with no services and the UN needs to provide attention to #TigrayGenocide www.arte.tv/fr/videos/12...

“As a Tigrayan, My Heart Bleeds for Palestine.” In this reflection on the atrocities taking place in #Palestine, a Tigrayan’s perspective is explored drawing parallels between the #TigrayGenocide and #GazaGenocide. Read omnatigray.org/my-heart-ble... omnatigray.org/my-heart-ble...

This paper by Prof. Jan Abbink, noted scholar of Ethiopia and Professor at @unileiden.bsky.social has a misleading title. The paper is not about social media, it’s about denying genocide, slaughter, starvation, and systematic sexual violence committed against Tigrayan civilians. /2

Disinformation campaigns about the Tigray Genocide go beyond social media. A recent paper from Leiden University’s African Studies Centre uses bad research and a conspiracy theory to “debunk” genocide, mass rape, forced starvation, and massacres of Tigrayan civilians. 🧵/1

I think that I have finished my first thread for BlueSky. I'll know when I look at it again tomorrow. The current draft is about disinformation and the Tigray Genocide and features an appearance from the world's cringiest genocide denier. Stay tuned.

THREAD: Weaponizing of Twitter in 2021 to spread denialism & manufacture consent for mass slaughter in Ethiopia, a mini case study. I bring up social media damage, both to urge @bsky.app to work on preventative mechanisms & to raise awareness of the horrors it has caused, far from western shores.

Leave or be killed.’ Tigrayans face a campaign of ethnic cleansing, says a new report by @hrw.org & @amnestyuk.bsky.social Urgent calls for UN action and peacekeeping forces to protect civilians. #StopWarCrimes #EthnicCleansing

Hi friends! Saving Algeneina are raising $1000 to provide blankets & winter clothes for displaced people in Gedarif who fled from eastern Jezira State in Sudan. paypal.com/ncp/payment/... There are so many children & elderly among them. Watch the video & listen to the kids: #KeepEyesOnSudan

"More than 1.42 million school-age children in the war-battered region have no access to education, while no less than 387 schools in various parts of Tigray remain closed or operating at reduced capacity" @unicefireland.bsky.social #EducationCanNotWait www.thereporterethiopia.com/42613/

Ending the night with today’s thread of Sudanese creatives I’d like you to know about (day 5!) 🙌🏾 #KeepEyesOnSudan Starting off with visual artist Hashim Nasr. His work is vivid, evocative, deeply tender. HIGHLY recommend!

The ceasefire in Ethiopia means little if Eritrean troops remain, committing abductions & terrorizing Tigrayan communities. World leaders, it’s time to enforce Eritrea’s exit from #Tigray @cnn.com @borowitzreport.bsky.social #EritreanTroopsOutOfTigray adf-magazine.com/2024/03/repo...

Tigrayans are caught in a crisis marked by brutality & loss. As this report reveals, the trauma faced by these communities demands urgent global action to support recovery &ensure accountability. @SkyNews @StateDept @Vonderleyen #UpholdPretoriaAgreement apnews.com/article/midd...

The world can no longer allow the genocide in #Tigray to remain in the shadows. Now is the time to take a stand & recognize the atrocities committed. It is time to take decisive action to ensure justice for the victims of genocide in #Tigray! @hrw.org @amnestyuk.bsky.social

🇪🇹’s civil war in the northern #Tigray region may be over, but the region is yet to eradicate the scourge of sexual violence the women continue to endure. Many survivors continue to face severe physical & psychological trauma, compounded by a lack of support & resources in the aftermath of the war

Our board member, Atsbha Teklehaymanot Gebrekidan, appeared on UMD Media to discuss our upcoming Giving Tuesday campaign, 'Seeds of Hope,' aimed at raising funds for students in Tigray. www.youtube.com/live/EyYQD0d...

Life in the Axum IDP centers is a daily struggle for survival. Families lack basic essentials& the need for international support has never been greater. Let’s amplify their voices& call for action. @msnbc.com.web.brid.gy @cbsnews.com.web.brid.gy #BringBackHomeTigrayRefugees t.co/pB5xfOrybj
