Praying for Tigray and the de-escalation of hostilities. #SayNoToWar

NEW | Renewed conflict in Tigray, northern Ethiopia, may escalate rapidly into a proxy or a regional war between longtime rivals Ethiopia and Eritrea. 1/7

My brain can't process the possibility of a full scale war between Ethiopia & Eritrea AGAIN. For what? To destroy what is left? Who is saying NO? The worst always happens when the world's eyes are turned elsewhere. #TigrayGenocide started on US election day in 2020.

"There's a saying in Tigrinya, “When you eat a fig, you don't open it”. You don't want to see what's inside. You just eat the fig as it is. This reflects how people often don't want to know what's going on in the rest of the world." commons.com.ua/en/conversat...
