Donation protected

 

The war on Tigray of Ethiopia which started on Nov. 4 continues to unfold a dire humanitarian crisis and agony.


UNOCHA estimates that over 521,200 have been internally displaced where many sheltering in schools due to COVID closures, over 60,885 fled to their neighboring country, Sudan, seeking safety. UN estimates that 4.5 million people need humanitarian aid and sexual violence against women is on the rise. https://www.voanews.com/ethiopia-tigray/un-hunger-rape-rising-ethiopias-tigray?amp&__twitter_impression=true 

Medicine Sans Frontiers reported that nearly 70% of health facilities have been looted, more than 30% damaged and only 13% are functioning normally. Extreme necessities across Tigray have been looted, vandalized, and destroyed. https://reliefweb.int/report/ethiopia/people-left-few-healthcare-options-tigray-facilities-looted-destroyed

In most Tigray, there are no bank facilities, no Electricity, complete phone & internet blackout, rampant violence, and rape. It has exacerbated the situation where many lives are at stake and facing a deadly shortage of food, medicine, and water in Tigray.
“I cannot imagine many girls my age are out of school, facing sexual violence, and starving in Tigray.” Eleora Ephrem
