The Ethiopian Human Rights Commission is gravely concerned and closely monitoring the fast-developing security situation in Tigray region and other parts of the country. EHRC Chief Commissioner Daniel Bekele said, “EHRC urges both federal and regional security forces to ensure the safety and security of civilians and respect human rights at all times.”

The Chief Commissioner added, “As Parliament convenes to discuss approval of the State of Emergency declared in Tigray, it should in particular consider ensuring humanitarian access and support including for food, medicine and other essential civilian services to avoid a complete blockage of communication and transport facilities.“ He also reminded all parties that “Tigray region is host to several thousands of refugees.”
