The Conflict in Ethiopia from a Tigrayan Perspective

 Ethiopia Insight posted on 18 December 2020 a commentary titled "The War on Tigray: A Multi-pronged Assault Driven by Genocidal Undercurrents" by Gebrekirstos Gebremeskel, an Amsterdam-based researcher.  

This is a lengthy and controversial historical account of the conflict in Tigray Region written from a Tigrayan perspective.  The author argues the conflict is a war against Tigray Region and the Tigrayan people with the goal of destroying Tigray.
