Ethiopia now ranks with Eritrea as the biggest jailers of journalists in sub-Saharan Africa, a new report from the Committee to Protect Journalists says.

At least 63 journalists and media workers have been arrested in Ethiopia since the Tigray conflict broke out in November 2020

Denying the #TigrayGenocide is a way to justify the murders of #Tigrayan civilians.

Pay attention.

These are crimes against humanity.

The targeted attacks are occurring on a daily basis.#Tigray

When you target hospitals and other civilian areas that have no military value with missile strikes that's terrorism. It's also a war crime. But of course we cant say that because it would make achieving a diplomatic settlement that much harder. https://t.co/sXyy71YJnk

I'm sorry, i missed the Hillary tie-in noting where (everywhere!) she's responsible - Hal will be gravely disappointed.

Well-written articles. Scary as hell re: a corner we get snippets from, but not a deep-dive like this.
