Every day, I will try to update what is going on currently in Red sea coast of Eritrea. I will name names, including High offical military leaders, security officers and administrators who are sanctioned our people. Daily, I will try to release two reports in English, Arabic and Afar.
-The regime that leased Assab port for millions of dollars in addition to monthly logistical support from UAE, sanctioned the owners and dwellers of the city. 1 bread for 1 one member of family per day. If they find enjera, they are lucky ones.
- The UAE stationed forces in Asseb tried several time to support the local people but the regime refused. In the last 2 month, they tried 2 times but all their meddling to provide assistance failed.
- In the first month of lock down, the PFDJ collaborated with the military battelions to collect some unused food grains from each battelion. They collected less than 100 quantal. There were brigade's who refused to give their share of what the top generals demanded.
- After they collected they handed it to city administration , however as usual it was insufficient . Majority of those who registered did not get the grain. Some of them reported to the city administration what they experienced and how they been humilited but nothing changed.
- PFDJ ration(grain, sugar and sometimes oil) which they sell for 1000Nakfa(equivalent to 85 dollar) is not distributed for the last 2 month. For those who live in remote areas, mainly Pastoralists they are depend on PFDJ ration and for the last 2 months they didn't receive rations. Till now nobody knows how they are living because many areas have no connection coverage( for the last 27 years)
- In Asseb, out of 6 bakery, only 3 is operating. In massawa, out of 9 only 4 is operating.The main towns; Rahayto, beylul, Berasoli, wade, afambo, eddi, tio, Ghelalu, Bada, Buri pensuila and dahlak, foro Edafalu, Zula and Hirgigo, no bakery exist.
- In massawa and Asseb, they asked the owners of the bakeries to not sell flour(all purpose flour) to the people. The owners of the bakery work on to provide daily bread(Breakfast, lunch and dinner) but the quantity of the flour decreased. The STORES have less flours(all purpose flour) and they are now providing only night time.
- During the 1st weeks of lock down, Fisher men were ordered to sail to massawa to handover the fish they carry. Still now, they didn't receive the price of the fish. Some of the owners of the boats are collapsed and devestated.
- No movement in the sea is allowed. Even to catch small fishes in front of your house is prohibited.
