Ethiopia's secret war in Tigray region: Ethnic killings, rapes, near-starvation reported
Fox News
Many women have "conclusively and without a doubt" been raped in the Tigray region, home to Ethiopia’s secretive conflict - which may have left tens of thousands of civilians dead - the country’s minister for women said Thursday in a rare government admission of its fallout.
The rape allegations have come out despite women having few police or health facilities for reporting alleged crimes. "Hence, there is a possibility that the actual number of cases might be higher and more widespread than the reported cases," the Ethiopian Human Rights Commission said in a report of the 108 alleged rapes over the last two months. Both sides in the conflict that started in early November see the other as illegitimate after last year's national elections were delayed because of the coronavirus and Tigray defiantly held its own.
