Investigative report on Gold that elaborated illicit gold mining in post conflict Tigray! I believe that this report is helpful for researchers in the field, and policy makers would use it as a benchmark for further studies and interventions. archive.ph/azkg0

Tigrayans' post-conflict life is still unbearable, with no electricity, soaring taxi fares, and surging maternal deaths; basic care is out of reach, though a peace agreement has been signed. www.facebook.com/share/p/1D3Y...

"The politics of counting those killed in the war became so distasteful to the government that officials resorted to making dubious legal arguments against collecting data at all." Claire Wilmot on counting the civilians killed by UK forces in Iraq: www.lrb.co.uk/blog/2025/ap...

Health facilities in Tigray were destroyed during the war. As a result, reports indicate that Polio, which disappeared decades ago, has surged in Tigray. In addition, malaria is also on the rise in Tigray the situation in IDPs, where there is no clean water supply and health facilities is worse.

It’s been a while since the fuel supply was interrupted in Tigray. Hundreds of cars are waiting in queueing, while gas stations are asking for a support letter from the woreda commerce office's. As a result, transportation in various places has been affected.

The suspension of USAID has resulted in an immediate crisis, mainly affecting the IDPs. Trump govt, and Tigray interim administration and other concerned bodies should look for alternative options to save the lives of IDPs.

On Nov 28, 2020, Axum witnessed one of the most devastating massacres in recent memory. Eritrean troops brutally killed hundreds of civilians in a city valued for its history. The memory of those lost fuels our fight for justice, ensuring such atrocities never happen again in Tigray or anywhere else

The ❝poor and helpless Tigray❞ narrative is being used to justify Ethiopian rule. Tigray political leadership seem oblivious, while our people remain unaware. Instead of such rhetoric, we should focus on policy choices that can truly empower Tigray.

Days ago, I visited Raya to see my family and found my little brother infected with malaria. Many villagers in the village are also infected. The situation is worsened by the destruction of the health center during the war, which caused the healthcare system to collapse. Malaria is resurging.

Despite the poignant tale of hardship suffered by IDPs from western Tigray, the WFP in northwestern Tigray states that aid will only be distributed to those living in the IDP centers, while 75% of the IDPs lives outside the centers with the hosting community.
