Soldiers and militias subjected Tigrayan women and girls to rape, gang rape, sexual slavery, sexual mutilation and other forms of torture, often using ethnic slurs and death threats. The victims can’t get the treatment they need due to the blockade. #EndTigraySiege @HMcPhersonMP pic.twitter.com/Gyvo8O7zGU

Thousands of Tigrayans fled to Sudan when the war erupted. Amongst them are children that are separated from their parents, elderly , the sick and people with disabilities. These camps are overcrowded with poor sanitation facilities. #TigrayCantWait @Alduceppe @trudel_denis pic.twitter.com/Vzb2ssIUUH
