Ethiopia's Secret War in the Tigray Region: Close to Ethnic Killing, Rape, and Hunger Reported
|
 [Texas News] Many women were "decisively and undoubtedly" raped in the Tigray region, home of Ethiopia’s secret conflict.
| What secret? The Tigray party were the government for a long time. Last year they were voted out, tried to fix the voters’ error, and were slapped down. |
Tens of thousands of civilians could have been killed in the fighting, the country’s women’s minister said Thursday in a rare government approval of the fallout.
A four-month conflict between Ethiopian troops and allied fighters (including Eritrean fighters whose existence has been denied) and former leaders of the Tigray fugitives who had long ruled the Ethiopian government.
| See? Poor losers. Unsportsmanlike conduct, ten yard penalty. |
Among them, most reported that more than 100 women were raped in remote northern areas.
Rape allegations have been filed, even though women have few police or medical facilities to report crimes.
"Therefore, the actual number of cases is higher than reported and can be widespread," the Ethiopian Human Rights Commission said in 108 reports of rape charges over the past two months.
| Or not. Everyone knows reports of mass rape garner outside support and funding. |
Both sides of the conflict, which began in early November, consider the other illegal after last year’s national elections were postponed due to the coronavirus and Tigray held itself rebelliously.
An ugly situation, unprecedented in African history, no doubt. I'm sure that the Biden regime will solve it by importing anyone claiming to be a refugee on both sides, making it a problem here

Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed once said that civilians had never been killed in the conflict, but recently admitted that he "caused a lot of personal pain."
Abby, who won the Nobel Peace Prize in 2019, reportedly was furious at Tigray’s decision to hold his election after the national elections were postponed in an attempt to concentrate the country’s power in September.

Heilu Kebede, opposition foreign minister at Salsay Woyane Tigray, called the conflict an "undocumented" war and, along with two others, estimates that more than 52,000 civilians have died in the past few months. ..
"The world will apologize to the people of Tigrinya, but it will be too late," he told The Associated Press.
Journalists have been locked out of areas of poor communication, but reports from fleeing survivors portray an unimaginable picture of the atrocities taking place in the area.

Disturbing reports include allegations of people forced to rape members of their family under the threat of violence and women forced to have sex with soldiers in exchange for basic necessities. I am.
The Red Cross said Wednesday that "many cases of severe malnutrition" have been reported even in areas where the majority of 6 million citizens remain unreachable. The organization said thousands could starve to death.
A Tigray woman studying in Europe said an Ethiopian soldier recently came to her village with food, but withheld it from a family suspected of having a connection with a Tigray fighter. It was.
"If you don’t bring your father or siblings, you won’t get help and you’ll starve," the woman told The Associated Press after talking to her sister in Tigray.
She also learned at a recent holiday rally that her uncle and two nephews had been killed by Eritrean soldiers. A local advocacy group that relies on witnesses arriving in the city by telephone service has listed a total of 59 victims.
"I’m very ashamed of my government," the student said on condition of anonymity for family safety and shouted. She also said she was worried that "if someone in my family dies, I’ll learn from Facebook" because it’s almost impossible to get in touch with people in the area.
An American nurse visiting her family in the border town of Rama estimated that 1,000 people had died after looting Eritrean soldiers.
She was able to leave the country and return to her Colorado home.
"We will be left without a family," she told AP if the fighting did not end soon.
