Sad stuff

Reports say Oromia Special Forces killed 52 from Benishangul-Gumuz, while follow-up attacks by Benishangul-Gumuz forces killed 40 Oromo civilians. 📍Eritrea Slams Prosperity Party. Eritrea strongly criticised Ethiopia’s ruling Prosperity Party, saying its policies are key drivers of conflict in Tigray, Amhara and the Oromia-Somali regions.

Confirmed: the Ethiopian government has brought mercenaries into Tigray to fight. 🇪🇹 The CEO of Thailand-based PMC Mstar Defense exposed their presence posting photos and footage of his fighters in the region. 🇹🇭 He also filmed graphic footage showing the bodies of TDF fighters.

Philadelphia and Pittsburgh gives more to state taxes than it receives genius
Congratulations Pennsylvania, as you now see the Democrat priorities. Not cheaper gas or utility prices, not better infrastructure, not affordable housing or better schools. Abortion, raising a minimum wage no one makes, and having the state pay for Philidelpia and Pittsburghs mass transit.

SIX YEARS OF GENOCIDE. SIX YEARS OF IMPUNITY. AND THE GENOCIDAL WAR HAS BEEN RENEWED. Nov 4, 2020 – Nov 4, 2026. On 4 November 2020, a genocidal war was unleashed on #Tigray. Six years later, justice remains elusive, millions continue to suffer, and the perpetrators have not been held accountable. The genocide did not end with the November 2022 Pretoria Agreement. For four years, the Ethiopian government failed to implement the core provisions of the agreement, rendering it a failed peace process. Its failure to address the root causes of the war, ensure the withdrawal of occupying forces, restore territorial integrity, guarantee the safe return of displaced people, and justice to the victims has paved the way for renewed warfare. Since early August 2026, the genocidal war against #Tigray has been renewed. Drone strikes, military offensives, civilian casualties, displacement, and siege once again threaten the survival of Tigray. We remember every life stolen, honour the survivors, and stand with the people of Tigray in their struggle for justice, dignity, and survival. Our demands are clear: * Immediate cessation of the renewed genocidal war and protection of civilians. * Independent international investigations and accountability for perpetrators. * Unhindered humanitarian access and restoration of essential services. * A new, comprehensive, inclusive political dialogue and negotiated settlement addressing the root causes of the war. * Justice, reparations, restoration of territorial integrity, and guarantees of non-recurrence. The Pretoria Agreement has failed. There can be no return to a failed process. A new political path grounded in justice, accountability, equality, mutual recognition, and lasting peace is urgently needed. Six years of genocide must not become a lifetime of impunity. REMEMBER THE VICTIMS. STAND WITH THE SURVIVORS. STOP THE RENEWED WAR. DEMAND JUSTICE FOR TIGRAY. #TigrayGenocide #Justice4Tigray @StateDept @CanadaFP @FCDOtravelGovUK @eu_eeas @hrw @amnesty @UNHumanRights

This is my final prediction map. No one's talking about New Jersey, but it’s going to be an upset. Btw I’ve been right about every presidential election going back to 2000 so I know what I’m talking about. 🇺🇸

Wrong again
I dont think Democrats gain any ground in midterms. I think they overplayed their hand with Abdul El Sayed and the socialist push The one unknown factor is whether the late night ballot drops and boxes of ballots found in the usual cities and states changes things.

Why are you lying ? lol
My friend, an ENDF Special Forces soldier, called me tonight from #Badme. Standing on that soil, he was in tears remembering the last time our flag flew high there. The emotional weight of history is heavy, but key moves are unfolding fast as forces head toward #Mendefera. 🇪🇹⚡

Drone strikes continue to claim the lives of civilians in Tigray. If this new caretaker government is to be effective, the first point of order should be to stop the endless violence that treats innocent civilians as expendable @reda_getachew @abeckrezun

This account has never shown proof a day in his/her life, this is the ethiopian Dr. Seus
🚨 Multiple Rounds of Drone Strikes Hit TPLF Positions Inside Eritrea. 🇪🇹⚔️🇪🇷 Targets included military vehicles and ammunition dumps. Dozens of vehicles were destroyed by Ethiopian Air Force drone strikes and loitering munitions in Tserona, Mai Aini and Adi Keyih. TPLF’s alliance for survival, which issued a video statement from Adi Keyih over the weekend, has relocated further north toward Asmara. The Isaias Afewerki regime has suppressed news of Ethiopian aerial attacks and went as far as prohibiting information about Ethiopian armed rebel groups plotting attacks from its territory. That plausible-deniability strategy is not fooling anyone. The entire TPLF leadership is currently in Eritrea—well known—and has drawn the Ethiopian Air Force in hot pursuit into Eritrean territory. A wider conflict is more likely now. Stay tuned for more information on this developing story.

What Eritrean sources ?
Ethiopia war update 65 📍 Undeclared Direct War Between Ethiopia and Eritrea. Heavy direct fighting has erupted along the Egela-Tsorona front between Ethiopian and Eritrean forces. Clashes began on Friday with Ethiopian drones and artillery shelling Eritrean positions near Qolo-Berdo village and continued whole day Saturday. On Sunday morning, infantry units from both armies engaged in close-range ground combat. Both sides are claiming victory. Ethiopian sources claim their forces advanced from Igella toward Tsorona, while Eritrean sources are reporting a major victory, comparing it to their historic 1999 victory in Igri Mekel. Today the ground combat was calm. 📍 Tigrayan Forces Claim Major Victory Between Ahferom and Bizet. Tigrayan forces claim to have inflicted heavy losses on Ethiopian government troops during clashes between Ahferom and Bizet. According to Tigrayan sources, Ethiopian forces transported dead and wounded soldiers in four trucks. 📍 Fano Claims Control of Historic Town. Heavy fighting has erupted between Amhara Fano forces and Ethiopian government troops in the historic town of Wuchale and nearby Ambassel in South Wollo. Local sources report that Fano forces have taken control of Wuchale following days of intense clashes. Senior military commanders, including colonels, were reportedly surrounded in Ambassel. 📍 Sudan Takes Ethiopia to UN and African Union. Sudan has filed formal complaints with the UN Security Council and the African Union, accusing Ethiopia of enabling RSF drone attacks that have killed or wounded hundreds of civilians and soldiers. Khartoum alleges that 187 one-way attack drones launched from Ethiopian territory since February have targeted civilian infrastructure and power stations. 📍 Ethiopia Suspends The Reporter Newspaper. Ethiopia’s Media Authority announced on Monday the indefinite suspension of the registration of The Reporter newspaper and its digital platforms. Founded in 1995, the publication was the country’s last active privately owned Amharic-language print newspaper.

Bro really looked at 30% of the country and 1% of the country and said yeah they're swapping those.
One huge demographic that is also being traded out by the Democratic party for Muslims is White women. This is obvious by the bullying treatment of Haley Stevens and her being exiled by her party. Curious to see how this effects midterms and 2028. I can see Republicans growing a lot with moderate Democrats shifting right.

Before Aksum’s rise, Adulis was already a wealthy Red Sea trading city. Nearly 2,000 years ago, the Periplus of the Erythraean Sea recorded King Zoskales ruling vast territories from Adulis. habeshahistory.com/p/adulis

False , you’re disgusting
Fun Facts About Omar Muhammad Idris Haji Ali Goret‼️ Ethnically, he was Oromo. He was well known as Beni-Amer. For years, his photo was used as an iconic image on the Ethiopian calendar. He was born in Wollega, in the Oromia region. He traveled north with his family when his father was stationed at the military facility in Assab, which was designated as the Assab Naval Station. He then moved to Tesseney when he was an adult. In 1965, American photojournalist James P. Blair captured Omar’s picture.
