‼️ why we need to keep advocating for #Justice4Tigray + build the infrastructure required for people to receive mental health care. It has to be built it to all our institutions as we rebuild. Schools, places of employment, etc & most importantly into our psyche as a positive.

My best friend’s mother is from Nebelet, sadly it was one of the areas that was continuously occupied by Eritrean soldiers. During their occupation, they killed a mentally disabled person named Tesfay, later residents asked them "Why would you kill a mentally disabled person?"1/n

Thinking genocide can be ended with a cessation of hostilities agreement between the victims & one of the perpetrators is wild. Especially given 2 main perpetrators weren’t included in #CoHA . But they probably never thought that. Just a way to put #TigrayGenocide off the agenda.

"Their (Tigrayan IDPs') number is insignificant; most of them have already returned," fascist Abiy lies again. Truth is at least 1.1 million Tigrayans still languish in makeshift camps. A million more are staying with families, friends and relatives. Still waiting to return.
