        They're not "withdrawing", it's bcs of a hard hit by the the Ethiopian forces. Remember; you reported that they were marching to Addis just a month ago! #TPLFSURRENDERNOW

        @AFP why the misleading narrative on who started the war? It happened just a year ago not generations. TPLF in there own words said, they started the war with a preemptive attack. #EthiopiaPrevails #TPLFisaTerroristGroup #NoMore

        Well, Today @AbiyAhmedAli responded by targeting civilians in Tigray using drones,i hope the message is clear... He committed genocide on Tigray with support of Eritrea then tried to cover it up using @EthioHRC .. This is not war of colonization. #KnowMore about #TigrayGenocide
