This madness in #Tigray must stop! This evening, armed militants from a criminal group of Army 60 opened fire on mothers who courageously opposed the forced conscription of their children in Hagereselam, Dogu'a Tembien, #Tigray, #Ethiopia. This is not an isolated incident. Similar abuses are unfolding across Tigray, turning the region into a place of fear and suffering. The violence continues, and silence only emboldens those responsible. The people of Tigray deserve peace, justice, accountability, and protection. The Federal government and the international community must not look away. Human Rights Watch U.S. Embassy Addis EU in Ethiopia / የአውሮፓ ህብረት በኢትዮጵያ UK in Ethiopia 🇬🇧 UN Human Rights

Sometimes my heart aches for African countries. Whether you like it or not, Field Marshal Birhanu Jula is telling the truth—not just about #Ethiopia, but about the entire African continent. While the rest of the world continues to progress and develop, many African countries remain trapped in cycles of changing governments through violence, preventing people from focusing on development and other areas that truly transform a nation. Africa will never catch up with the rest of the world as long as war and violence continue to be seen as solutions to every problem. The cycle will continue without end. While people are focused on fighting for political leadership, the continent’s resources are exploited by others, and conflicts and humanitarian crises create opportunities for organizations that profit from instability. Africans should wake up.
