"The regime in Ethiopia has historically utilized prolonged detention and court proceedings while being mistreated during detention against political advocates and opposition figures leading to their death or total incapacitation, as seen in the case of the late Prof. Asrat Woldeyes.

If they are not released soon what we are facing is the grim reality of losing them all! Release them while they are alive! This is a known tactic, you will all be accountable for knowingly subjecting them to treatments that will eventually cause their death. This is no different from murder! The only difference is the implicit hope of freedom is more agonizing for friends, family, the people that love them and themselves! While knowing full well you are killing them slowly with no due process of law convicting them to such harsh injustice! RELEASE THEM NOW! @AP @theintercept @steve_hanke @bellingcat @Stratfor @BoozAllen @wikileaks @martinplaut @LaurenBinDC Please DM me if you can @mmekonen1.
GPE Red Alert (Urgent) Status of 28 Detainees in Ethiopia [UPDATE-3] October 15, 2026 🚨 ETHIOPIA LIFE THREATENING DETENTION ALERT: 28 political prisoners face severe health risks after refusing conditional pardon terms that restricted their civil rights. Reports indicate they have been placed in isolation with restricted medical care and family visits👇 The regime in Ethiopia has historically utilized prolonged detention and court proceedings while being mistreated during detention against political advocates and opposition figures leading to their death or total incapacitation, as seen in the case of the late Prof. Asrat Woldeyes. There are already signs of this happening with the severe health deterioration Dr. Wondwossen Assefa is facing while in detention. GPE therefore calls for the unconditional release of all 28 detainees, citing the lack of established guilt after three years of detention. To ensure lifesaving treatment is afforded to detainees quickly they should instantly be released on bail to their families pending processing of their unconditional release.

"The only thing necessary for evil to triumph is for good men to do nothing." Burke. Just today: 94 Christians dead in Arsi. Every day, more. Tired of being killed. Tired of being ignored. Do something. Or stop calling it partnership. @_AfricanUnion @USEmbassyAddis @SecRubio

Wow! They have a day for the environment that gets exploited during war and armed conflict. Is there a day for the civilians that die during war and armed conflict? I hope so, cause it won't look good if that is not the case.... that "green soyen..." movie is more and more sounding plausible now 🫤 . World please be better! @IntlCrimCourt so many genocidal wars to investigate....why are you focusing on virtue signaling? For instance...#Ethiopia..#Sudan..
The #ICC Office of the Prosecutor marks the International Day for Preventing the Exploitation of the Environment in War and Armed Conflict. After launching its Policy on Addressing Environmental Damage through the #RomeStatute, the Office is now ensuring its implementation.

Another massacre of Christians in Ethiopia 50 Christians murdered yesterday 60 were murdered the other week When will world leaders condemn the slaughter of Christians? Or don’t our lives count?
🚨 Over 50 Orthodox Christians massacred in Endeto, Arsi, today, one week after 60 Christians were killed in the same area Another deadly attack targeting Ethiopian Orthodox Christians took place on November 5th, 2026, in Endeto, Arsi, Oromia Region, just one week after a separate massacre claimed the lives of more than 60 Orthodox Christians in the area. According to local sources, more than 50 bodies had been recovered by Thursday evening following an assault involving armed militants equipped with mortars, sniper rifles and other weapons. The attackers also looted Christian-owned homes and businesses, seized livestock and destroyed property, while bodies remained scattered across nearby forests. Local sources identified the attackers as members of the Maddawalaabuu Brigade, an armed group backed by the government that was also involved in last week’s killings in Birbona and Chole Kebeles of Shirka Woreda. Reports have emerged concerning the involvement of local government officials in facilitating the attack. Residents reportedly warned authorities days beforehand after observing armed gatherings and weapons being unloaded at a local mosque, but their warnings were dismissed. Woreda officials allegedly contacted zonal and regional authorities to reject additional security reinforcements, claiming sufficient forces were already available, while access roads were reportedly dug up to obstruct the arrival of ENDF troops. Sources further allege that local officials confiscated weapons from Christian residents while allowing other armed groups to retain weapons, leaving Orthodox Christian militia members severely outgunned. Several militia members were reportedly killed within minutes of confronting the attackers. ENDF reinforcements eventually reached the area after dark and began recovering bodies.

THREAT INTELLIGENCE BRIEFING 34 Orthodox Christians Killed in Endato, East Arsi, Ethiopia Friday, November 6, 2026 UNCLASSIFIED // OPEN SOURCE BOTTOM LINE UP FRONT On Thursday, November 5, around 11 AM local time, attackers hit Endato village in Robe district, East Arsi Zone, Oromia Region, Ethiopia. The bodies of 34 Orthodox Christian victims were gathered at Endato Debre Mitmaq St. Mary Church. The community warns the toll may rise as recovery continues. Several people were injured. Shops and homes were burned or damaged. Eyewitnesses say roads were blocked, cutting off medical access. That claim has not been independently confirmed. WHAT HAPPENED - Midday attack in Endato Kebele, Robe Woreda, East Arsi. - Victims were Orthodox Christians. Bodies brought to St. Mary Church in Endato. - Follows October 20 and October 24 attacks in Merti and Shirka. The Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church reported about 60 Orthodox Christians killed in those earlier attacks. - Open-source reporting now puts the combined toll from attacks on worshippers at least 94 in less than three weeks. THE ATTACKERS No group has been publicly confirmed for the November 5 Endato attack. Ethiopia's Human Rights Commission attributed the earlier October attacks in the area to the Oromo Liberation Army. That covers those earlier killings. It does not, by itself, name who carried out Thursday's massacre. THE VICTIMS Orthodox Christian civilians in Endato. Names have not been fully released in the reporting we have. CURRENT STATUS Authorities arrested nearly 70 suspects after the October killings. Thursday's attack raises fresh concern that the violence has not stopped. Recovery is ongoing. Numbers may change. WHY IT MATTERS FOR CHURCHES HERE This is the third major hit on Orthodox communities in East Arsi in under three weeks. When violence comes in waves, later attacks often land while people are still burying the first. You are not facing that threat level in most of the United States. The lesson still transfers. Know your ground. Know who is coming to help you. Know how long that help takes. WHAT YOUR SAFETY TEAM CAN DO 1. Walk the outside of the building before every service. Lot, doors, bushes, trash areas, and anything that was not there last week. 2. Build a real relationship with your local police. Have a named contact, not just a non-emergency number. 3. Know your police and fire response times for a Sunday morning and a weeknight. Time it. Write it down. Plan to hold until they arrive. 4. After any incident or credible threat, expect a second wave. Keep coverage up while you handle the first scene. 5. Brief ushers and greeters on blocked-exit plans. Have a secondary exit. 6. Check claims before you share them. Wrong numbers hurt the people you are trying to help. Pray for the families in Endato, for the wounded, for the Orthodox Christians of East Arsi, and for those burying their dead again. Details may change as the investigation develops.

We call this ‘state terrorism’! As long as the world ignores this and simply does business with criminals, nothing will change! A. Ahmed’s regime is committing genocide. Human rights organisations must hold him to account.

And what he said! I have put it in my quoted post, earlier. But direct reminder works too.
Why is it someone who supposedly has a "Focus on the Horn of Africa" doesn't know there's been a war going on for the past three years between Fano and the regime? It's not that "insecurity persists" -- there's outright ETHNIC CLEANSING OF AMHARA! Please pay closer attention.

Is he not killing Ethiopians fast enough? Why would anyone bankroll such a genicidal regime? Amharas are being killed on an 30/day average for 8 years now. Check out #AmharaGenocide reports. Tigray, Amhara, Afar, have been on and off conventional war with thr regime for over 6 years now, imagine the death toll. And Oromiya is a killing field. Why on earth would anyone finsnce such a regime? Is it a few white elephant projects it will take to cover up such massive humanitarian crisis and crimes against humanity? You are teaching tyrants how to be efficient in their ruthlessness. Such a sad world 💔💔💔
IMF approved a four-year, $3.4 billion program for Ethiopia in July 2024 . By June 2026, disbursements had reached nearly $2.65 billion. So where is this money going? Over the same period, fighting has flared again in Tigray, insecurity persists in Amhara and Oromia, and tensions between Ethiopia and Eritrea are raising the risk of a wider regional war. What is more, Ethiopia has become a party to a war beyond its own borders. Sudan is being struck by drones launched from Ethiopian territory, from the Asosa and Bahir Dar bases. The IMF has become the biggest partner in Ethiopia’s regional aggression. The measure of the IMF’s success should not be how much money it disburses, but whether that money improves the lives of Ethiopians.

Over 50 Orthodox Christians in Arsi, Oromia region of Ethiopia have been killed by the militants groups affiliated with Oromia regional government, with 40 bodies recovered, wrapped, and buried hastily in a mass grave by Ethiopian Defense forces amid blocked medical aid for survivors.
🚨 40 bodies recovered and buried in a mass grave following massacre of over 50 Orthodox Christians in Endeto, Arsi, Oromia Region New information emerging on November 6th, 2026, indicates that 40 bodies have so far been recovered and buried in a single mass grave following Thursday’s massacre of Orthodox Christians in Endeto, Arsi Zone, Oromia Region. According to local sources, Ethiopian National Defense Force (ENDF) personnel initially oversaw the collection of 34 bodies, while another wounded victim subsequently died and five additional bodies were brought from surrounding areas, bringing the number buried to 40. Sources allege that ENDF personnel ordered the bodies to be buried hastily in a single pit and prohibited families from mourning loudly. Additional victims reportedly remain unaccounted for in nearby forests and ravines. Meanwhile, wounded survivors have been unable to access medical treatment after armed groups blocked a privately hired vehicle attempting to transport them to Robe. Sources warn that the death toll could rise as injured civilians remain without medical assistance. Orthodox Christian residents also accuse the @AbiyAhmedAli regime security authorities of failing to protect them, alleging that officials told threatened families to either convert or leave the area. The latest massacre follows separate attacks that killed at least 60 Orthodox Christians in Arsi during October, bringing renewed attention to the continued killings and insecurity affecting Christian communities in the area.

ዕዳ ⟡ 231 · 257 ━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 📊 ARSI · WHAT IS HAPPENING NOW Leave the patriarchate. This is the ground, and it is where the numbers hold. 📈 THE MEASURED PATTERN ACLED, October 2026. Since February 2023 it has recorded 193 instances of civilian targeting in the Arsi zone, and around a third of them were aimed at Orthodox Christian residents. Most of it in Shirka woreda. In 2026 alone: twenty-five incidents targeting Orthodox civilians, half of them in Shirka. On election day, 1 June, more than two hundred houses were burned, mostly belonging to Orthodox residents, and the 101-year-old Teleta St Gebrael Church went with them. 🕯 20 AND 24 OCTOBER 2026 Fourteen killed at Gora Silingo in Merti district. Forty-six at Tereta, Chole and Birbo in Shirka. Twenty homes burned. Sixty in all, by the Holy Synod's count, which the wire services carry. ACLED puts the Shirka toll between forty and sixty by its own reckoning, and calls it the deadliest violence in that zone since 2023. ❌ AND FOR TEN DAYS NOBODY ESTABLISHED WHO DID IT The Oromia regional government blamed the Oromo Liberation Army. AP and Reuters both record that it presented no evidence. ACLED's own words: "The perpetrators of most of this violence are an unidentified armed group." The Holy Synod named nobody at all. That held until 3 November. Posts 232 and 233 are the state commission's own field investigation, which names a group — and revises the count. ⚠️ AND THE DETAIL THAT MAKES IT A PATTERN Shirka's population is predominantly Oromo and Muslim, on the 2007 census — the last one taken. The people being counted there are a local minority, in their own country, and the counting is being done by a conflict monitor in another one. ‖ A third of the civilian targeting in one zone, across three years, on one faith. ‖ That is not a toll. It is a shape. #Arsi #Shirka #EthiopianOrthodox

If Ethiopia’s gov't is worried about coverage that “negatively affects foreign investment, tourism & diplomacy,” perhaps it could start by stopping the bombing of its own people. With atrocities in Amhara, Oromia & Tigray, independent reporting is vital. abaytimes.com/politics/human…

Satellite imagery, its not a fresh news. He was exposed months ago. The case was discussed in detail in some publications back then. What is new now is that he admitted guilt. It's been more than a year....or more...during yhe northern Ethiopia war (2020-2022). Now @FBI need to look into Ethiopian regime agents that are trying to harass US citizens and US legal residents for speaking up and for exercising their constitutional rights. These agents are hiding behind US immigration policy to intimidate people. Some have opened frivolous litigation procedures to stop nationals and CSOs that legally operate in the USA from exposing the crimes committed by the regime in Ethiopia. It is really not that different from what this contractor did to help the regime in Ethiopia.
Abraham Teklu Lemma “removed electronic versions of classified information from classified U.S. govt repositories and then removed the same classified information from secure U.S. government facilities where he worked.” What did he remove? 🤔

Great news! When the diaspora works together, it actually can land huge milestones! Well done Amhara organizations in Canada along with all your supporters! Let's hope they will sincerely discuss the situation without the usual bias around the targeting of #Amharas in #Ethiopia. In the past, I can confidently say that the Canadian parliament did not impartially discuss the human rights violation against Amharas in Ethiopia. Here is hoping for a better fact based deliberation on the issue.

#SenayConversation Remember, when I posted here that the regime in Ethiopia wants to externalize the conflict within Ethiopia towards the entire HoA? It is happening! It started by instigating Eritrea - gave office to major Eritrean opposition Birged Nhamedu in Addis Ababa (mind you, not a simple group, this is a group identified as violent across Europe for wrecking peaceful Eritrean festivals), it moved on to unsettling Sudan - it gave military base to RSF, an armed group from Sudan, not just any group again, a group accused of genocide at that! (birds of the same feather.... )... then it continued on goading Egypt.. via an official remark from its Water Minister on plans of building new dams that may control flow downstream.. (mind you, we all know they didn't do this out of patriotism, if it was, they wouldn't give RSF base right next to the GERD dam, giving Sudan and Egypt an excuse to target it, ... no this is a sure way of bringing war on Ethiopian soil!). So finally, it expelled diplomats from all three countries. but wait for it.. yes.. that is not enough.. the conflict in Moyale where civilian Somalis were massacred by the OPP forces is spilling over to Kenya, there is absolutely no guarantee that it won't involve Kenya. Now see the full picture! The regime is fast losing monopoly of violence within Ethiopia, they have lack of new recruits, so what are the preparing Ethiopians for? Yes.. for an expanded.. drawn out long war that involves 5 countries plus.. and with its epicenter in Ethiopia itself. If they cannot rule Ethiopia! They will dismantle it.. and have their brand new and shining nation state on the blood of Ethiopians. Why do you think the PM is dabbling on the idea of introducing national service? Do you think the entire cabinet of ministers taking military training was just a joke? No it was a way of soft introducing the idea of national service. As they were bad mouthing Eritrea about Sawa for years. They have to find a new way of introducing it to the people. Because they know the multiple wars they are calling on Ethiopia (on top of the one that is ongoing for 6 years now) will require recruits. And voluntary recruits got at the lowest right now, so what best way to force people to go to war than introducing national service! As always.. you heard it here first! Subscribe to youtube.com/@senayconversati… and follow @SenayConverse for new episodes (program will restart next week). We will have guests that will break down what is to unfold in the Horn of Africa.. with a focus on our troubled #Ethiopia. @umutcagrisariii @JemalCountess @jeffpropulsion @AidanSimardone @sajid_nadeem78 @martinplaut @_hudsonc @afitz3105 @LaurenBinDC @IngrahamAngle @peeblesgraham @steve_hanke @HOAAffairs @GrandaKilomarie @SecRubio
