"UN Investigation into Ongoing Atrocities in Ethiopia Comes to a Disheartening End"

UN human rights experts have issued a warning that there is a high risk of ongoing atrocity crimes in Ethiopia, citing serious violations, widespread violence, and entrenched impunity. The experts emphasized the need for independent investigations into the country's dire human rights situation. Despite a ceasefire agreement, the Commission confirmed the presence of Eritrean forces and ongoing atrocities, including rape and other forms of sexual violence, against civilians in the Tigray region. The situation in the Amhara region is also deteriorating, with reports of extrajudicial killings and mass arrests. The experts called on the international community to ensure investigations persist to address human rights violations and prevent further tragedies.
