‘Yiakl’ (Enough is Enough) Peaceful Demonstration Underway in Mekelle Mekelle, January 13, 2025 (Tigray TV) “Send us back home immediately!” is the rallying cry of a three-day peaceful demonstration currently taking place at Romanat Square in Mekelle, Tigray. Organized by the International People’s Movement of Tsilal Western Tigray Civil Society, the protest demands the immediate repatriation of displaced individuals to their homes. Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) from western Tigray continue to face severe challenges due to the incomplete implementation of the Pretoria Peace Agreement. Despite their hopes for a safe return, the worsening situation has left millions of IDPs without shelter, security, or access to essential services. Protesters are calling for urgent action to address their plight and ensure their right to return home. The rally will continue until Wednesday 15 January.
