#OrthodoxUnderAttack: Abiy Ahmed's security forces appear to be intensifying the religious persecution of Orthodox Christians in the form of arrests and harassment throughout Addis Ababa & the Oromia region of #Ethiopia. This is despite the good-faith effort by the Holy Synod of the Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church, whom in good-faith met with the Prime Minister and called off the national protest planned for Sunday, February 12. The Ethiopian government must understand that freedom of religion is a human right. Freedom of religion is guaranteed by article 18 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, article 18 of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights and the Declaration on the Elimination of All Forms of Intolerance and of Discrimination Based on Religion or Belief.

ETHIOPIA: The ethically motivated forced displacement and demographic engineering in Oromia and Addis Ababa is a form of ethnic-cleansing and must immediately stop. In a country that currently holds the world record for the most number of internally displaced people (IDP), it's inhumane and counter-productive for the Ethiopian govt to conduct forced eviction and home demolition campaigns. An immediate moratorium on demolishing and forced evictions must be declared! According to local media, survivors and eyewitnesses, thousands of residents and students in the Kolfe neighborhood of Addis Ababa were attacked today by police for protesting the government's demolition of homes and the forced evictions of thousands of families in and around Addis Ababa. Just a few days ago, the Ethiopian Human Rights Commission (Ethiopian Human Rights Commission (EHRC) - ኢሰመኮ) condemned the government for these ethnically motivated discriminatory evictions and human rights violations. Pushing ethnic minorities in the Oromia region and the people of Addis Ababa into a corner will backfire on Abiy Ahmed Ali 🇪🇹 and exacerbate the unprecedented humanitarian crises in #Ethiopia. Today's unrest in the Kolfe (ኮልፌ) neighborhood of Addis Ababa is a sign. We call for an immediate eviction moratorium in and around Addis Ababa to stop the unnecessary and massive displacement of citizens.

BREAKING: Ethiopian Muslims in Addis Ababa are protesting the demolition of over 19 Mosques by the Oromia region. There has been reports of police beating protestors and using teargas. #JusticeForEthiopianMuslims #JusticeForEthiopia The demolition of Mosques currently happening around Addis Ababa, by the #Oromo Tribal government, has caused widespread shock and disbelief in #Ethiopia. Additionally, disturbing reports of the desecration of the Holy #Quran during the Mosque demolition process has added another layer of anguish to the situation. By demolishing Mosques and disrespecting the Holy Quran, Ethiopia's ruling Oromo Prosperity Party, Prime Minister Abiy and the Governor of Oromia Shimelis Abdisa have demonstrated that their narrow tribal interest supersedes the universal rights to freedom of religion. "19 Masjids have been destroyed since Ramadan." The High Council of #Oromia Islamic Affairs ‐---------------- #SanctionEthiopianGovt #RerouteRemittance #DefundAbiy محمد بن زايد STOP UAE's generous financial aid to Ethiopia until Abiy Ahmed Ali 🇪🇹 rebuilds the Mosques his gov't destroyed & Muslims forcefully displaced are returned to their homes with compensation.
