Badme – Gebreselassie Woldeabzigi, a 72-year-old Ethiopian, fled his hometown in Badme, a border town of around 2,000 people in May 1998.
It was the start of a two-year war between Ethiopiaand Eritrea that killed an estimated 70,000 people from both sides.
The conflict ended after the two countries signed a peace deal in Algiers in December 2000.
Tigray and Tigrayans have been subjected to public incitements of genocide, defamation, imprisonment and abuses for the past one year and half in Ethiopia. As a result, hundreds of Tigrayans are unjustly held and languishing in federal, regional and secret prisons.
