Tigray: Report Details Mass Rape, Sexual Torture as Crimes Against Humanity

A comprehensive report, compiled by Physicians for Human Rights and the Organization for Justice and Accountability in the Horn of Africa (OJAH), documents widespread sexual violence perpetrated by Ethiopian and Eritrean soldiers in Tigray. The research, based on medical records, health worker surveys, and interviews, reveals systematic attacks including mass rape, sexual slavery, forced pregnancy, and sexual torture, targeting women and children. These atrocities were often intended to destroy the fertility of Tigrayan women. This report concludes that these acts constitute crimes against humanity and calls for international investigation into potential acts of genocide.

Tigray War Atrocities: Eritrean Forces Accused of Sexual Violence and Genocide

In the Tigray region of Ethiopia, numerous women have been subjected to extreme sexual violence, including the insertion of foreign objects into their reproductive organs. Survivors, like Tseneat, have had objects such as screws, nail clippers, and notes with threatening messages surgically extracted from their bodies. These notes, often written by Eritrean soldiers, explicitly state their intent to make Tigrayan women infertile, aiming to destroy the ethnic group. Despite a ceasefire, sexual violence persists, with limited access to medical care, and justice for these atrocities remains elusive.
