Pep Guardiola is much more than just an unbelievable manager. He spoke up for the people of Palestine, Sudan and Congo while others looked away. Pep used his platform to defend our shared humanity. That will never be forgotten. Thank you, Pep.

@missfeven YES WE DID IT. 🏆 Two decades later, the wait is over. After 22 years, we’ve won it.

Did Arsenal win? Why am I hearing screaming? I thought I was on a road filled with Man U supporters. This has never happened before, has Arsenal never won? I’m hearing TWENTY YEARS??

Abune Mathias, the Patriarch of the Ethiopian Orthodox Church, pleads with the Saudi Arabian authorities to pardon Ethiopians who are facing the death penalty and commute their sentences to prison terms. At least 65 Ethiopians are at imminent risk of execution, @hrw said.

The United States condemns yesterday’s drone attack on Khartoum airport and other civilian sites, reportedly committed by the RSF. Civilian objects must not be targeted. Civilian airports are especially critical for the movement of humanitarian supplies and personnel. Attacks like these create yet another hindrance for desperately needed humanitarian access. Such attacks must stop; the belligerents must accept a humanitarian truce, move toward a permanent ceasefire, and facilitate the transition to a civilian-led government on the basis of an inclusive national dialogue. They must also recognize that there is no military solution to this deadly conflict. External support to either side in Sudan’s conflict must end immediately and unequivocally; any continued assistance that enables the fighting will bear direct responsibility for prolonging the conflict and the suffering of the Sudanese people.

Simret Officially Backing Tigray Genocide Getachew Reda’s party isn’t even pretending to represent the interests of #Tigray. It’s openly facilitating the genocide against Tigray. The real tragedy is seeing some unpatriotic and self‑hating Tigrayans passionately cheering them on.

Solomon — one of the very people who worked tirelessly to shut down an AU inquiry into the genocide in Tigray — presenting himself as a defender of human rights is beyond ironic. Not endorsing the xenophobic attacks in any form btw.

#Yacob_Yatane: Heartbreak as Exiled #Ethiopian Journalist Dies in #Kenya, Proof of Poisoning Emerges Prior to his death, the journalist had allegedly complained of persistent threats and being consistently trailed by unidentified Amharic-speaking individuals in Nairobi. In November 2025 (late 2017 EC), Yacob shared that things became harder for him when two men and a woman allegedly tracked him to his residence and physically confronted and threatened him. Fearing for his life, Yacob turned to the Kenyan National Police Service as well as the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (#UNHCR), and despite having to change his residence for security reasons, he remained vulnerable until his death. tuko.co.ke/people/family/…

News: Rights group urges #Saudi authorities to halt #executions of Ethiopians, calls for #Addis_Abeba’s immediate intervention as three already executed “at least 65 Ethiopian migrants are at imminent risk of execution”..., with three already executed on 21 April. “Saudi Arabia’s willingness to execute foreign migrants for nonviolent offences following trials that denied them basic due process reflects a profound disregard for their rights and lives,” said Nadia Hardman, senior refugee and migrant rights researcher at #HRW. addisstandard.com/?p=56677

@moonpeachbrown Such are questions we need to ask on a daily basis. 1) how come we don't have running water all the time? 2) how come power is hit or miss? 3) how come sewer lines are popping out on the streets at times? 4) where did the poor people that got dislocated end up? 5) cost of food.

Normalising trade with a government widely accused of genocide and ongoing starvation in #Tigray and beyond. If this is “diplomacy,” what does complicity look like? As I have written before "Norge må ikke stå på feil side av historien i opprydningen etter Tigray-krigen"

Urgent Notice! After a week-long, relentless search to establish his whereabouts, JAKENN Publishing PLC and its legal team have determined that journalist #Million_Beyene was taken from his workplace at the Addis Standard newsroom by intelligence officers and is being held at an undisclosed, informal detention facility in Addis Abeba. No family members, colleagues, or legal counsel have been granted access to him, and his health condition remains unknown. Moreover, he has not been brought before a court within the constitutionally mandated 48-hour period. JAKENN Publishing PLC strongly condemns these actions, which constitute a grave violation of due process and fundamental rights. We call for the immediate disclosure of Million’s whereabouts, full access to his family and legal representatives, and his unconditional release in accordance with the law.

Seventy-two hours on, silence persists. Despite repeated inquiries and appeals, no authority has provided any information about his whereabouts or condition. #WhereIsMillion #BringMillionHome #JournalismIsNotACrime #EndEnforcedDisappearances
