4 years ago #Eritrean troops fighting alongside #Ethiopia systematically killed hundreds of unarmed civilians in the Sacred City of #Axum on 28-29 November 2020, opening fire in the streets and conducting house-to-house raids in a massacre that may amount to a crime against humanity.

#AxumMassacre

After the soldiers left, Marta, who said she was shot in the hand, helped drag the seven bodies inside, so that the hyenas wouldn't eat them. "We slept near the bodies ... and we couldn't bury them because they [the soldiers] were still there," she said.

“Come out, come out you b*tches." Marta said they went outside holding their identity cards aloft, saying "we're civilians." But the troops opened fire anyway, hitting Biniam, his sister and several others.

#Tigray: On Nov, 30 2020 a religious festival turned into a massacre.

"I was holding Bini, he wasn't dead..I thought he was going to survive, but he died in my arms.”

The couple had just been married in Oct. Marta found out after the massacre that she was pregnant

A Day in Axum’s IDP Centers — Humanity in Crisis A couple of days ago, I walked through the IDP centers in Axum, and immediately, the reality of the suffering of the IDPs was evident.

IDP. A horrible acronym for persons who were forced out of their homes - through genocidal actions in the case of those seeking shelter in Axum. A statistic in the eyes of Europe, and one that remains neglectable as long as they don't try to reach Europe.
