When TPLF allies with Shaebia—the regime that co-led #TigrayGenocide —they follow a disturbing playbook: 1️⃣ Rewrite the Narrative: Genocide becomes “retaliation,” absurdly justified by things like cattle rustling. 2️⃣ Silence the Victims: Survivors and dissenters are sidelined or branded “obstacles to peace.” 3️⃣ Consolidate Power: It’s not about justice—it’s elite self-preservation, cloaked as diplomacy. 4️⃣ Exploit Trauma Fatigue: “Move on” becomes the message to a shattered people. The result? 5️⃣ Genocide is normalized—and primed to happen again.

.@dw_amharic reports Gen. Abreha Tesfay (Dinkul) is surrounded. It remains to be seen whether he will be captured like yellow-bellied John Medid or show spine and continue fighting till his end.

𝗣𝗶𝗰𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲𝗱: 543 military communication radios seized in Shire after a tip from the local community. Another sign that Tigrayans are done with TPLF that prolonged our suffering.

𝐏𝐢𝐜𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞𝐝: John Medid and his officers/staff, along with the guns they were carrying. They look subdued with bowed heads, but these are criminals responsible for widespread atrocities in Tigray.

🌄𝐏𝐞𝐨𝐩𝐥𝐞 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐡𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐡𝐨𝐦𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐓𝐢𝐠𝐫𝐚𝐲 Addis → Mekelle flights are sold out for the next 10 days. Mekelle → Addis still has same-day seats available. Few months ago, seats leaving Mekelle were weeks in advance. The direction of demand has flipped.

𝗝𝗼𝗵𝗻 𝗠𝗲𝗱𝗶𝗱 𝗮𝗳𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗰𝗮𝗽𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝘁𝗼𝗱𝗮𝘆: 𝘀𝗰𝗮𝗿𝗲𝗱 𝗹𝗶𝗸𝗲 𝗮 𝗰𝗵𝗶𝗰𝗸𝗲𝗻, 𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗽𝗼𝗺𝗽 𝗮𝗹𝗹 𝗴𝗼𝗻𝗲. He must face justice for terrorizing, torturing, and killing civilians in Tigray.

𝗣𝗶𝗰𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲𝗱: John Medid and his yellow-bellied commanders, captured today. These criminals terrorized Tigray, killed and tortured civilians, and must face trial for their crimes.

Pictured: Some of John Medid’s army commanders and staff captured today. 7 commanders and 18 staff members (25 total) were captured along with Medid. Medid led a criminal army that terrorized, killed, and tortured civilians in Raya and Endreta, where his forces were based.

𝗣𝗶𝗰𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲𝗱 𝗶𝘀 𝗝𝗼𝗵𝗻 𝗠𝗲𝗱𝗶𝗱 𝗮𝗳𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗰𝗮𝗽𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝘁𝗼𝗱𝗮𝘆. The yellow chicken of Tigray finally stopped clucking. Big talk, no fight. 𝗖𝗼𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗱! 𝗖𝗿𝗶𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗹!

Hall of shame.

𝗝𝗼𝗵𝗻 𝗠𝗲𝗱𝗶𝗱 𝗽𝗿𝗲𝘃𝗶𝗼𝘂𝘀𝗹𝘆 𝘀𝗮𝗶𝗱: “I don’t like talking about myself, but I am a hero making history in Tigray” He was captured today, crying for his life. The yellow chicken of Tigray 🐔 - big talk, no fight. History remembers the clucking, not the courage.

🚨John Medid, TPLF’s spineless butcher & coward commander, captured today by TPF-ENDF. TPLF leaders are nothing but bloodthirsty cowards: happy to sacrifice young lives as cannon fodder for their protection, yet absolute yellow-bellied worms who crumble the second their own necks are on the line. Medid just proved it.

45 trucks loaded with food aid from @WorldVision entering Shire today. Aid is reaching communities as normal life resumes. TPLF’s dream for disruption has not materialized. Stability continues to return.

Congratulations to Tigisti Alemu on her appointment as director of Radio FM Mekelle. Well deserved!

Tigray TV starts today free of TPLF control. TPLF editorial policy demanded a specific Tigrigna accent that privileged Eritrean Tigrigna, rejected most Tigrayan accents, and excluded journalists who spoke them. This must end now.

Mekelle continues to elect its interim administrators. Letebrhan Hintsa (pictured) is one of those elected for the Hawelti area. So happy to be in my hometown Mekelle while people elect their own.

Edga Hamus elected Mekeonen Hagos as its interim mayor. Congrats!

🚨Emergency food aid has reached Axum. TPLF fears the return of normal life in Tigray more than drones, and its worst nightmare is now unfolding.

🚨TPF statement to TPLF cadres: Register at the nearest police station Oct 25–29 for consultations. Those who fail to register will be treated as having chosen to continue working for the defunct TPLF. A generous offer to those who served as key instruments of injustice in Tigray.
