I am not happy with the killing of Siyoum Mesfin and higher TPLF's official

Post by Abaymado » 17 Jan 2021, 02:24

Tigreans are divided in this issue. one side is saying Siyoum was executed and the other one believes that he took his life. But agames' nature is amazing, When they think abiy could blamed and charged, they want use the word "execution". To preserve Tigray dignity, they want match the killing of Siyoum this situation with king Atse Tewdros.

Many international and l0cal activists are telling us Siyoum was killed by sniper. Why? why didn't they capture them alive and put in the bars?

Any way, I don't want to see this kind of tragedies any more.

The Ethiopian Defense Force on Wednesday confirmed that former Minister for Foreign Affairs Seyoum Mesfin was killed after he resisted to surrender.

News updates from the defence force said that they were killed during a joint operation with the Federal police but did not specify when that happened. Seyoum Mesfin was killed in a cave area along the Tekezze river bank (the river is 608 kilometers long).

Some Ethiopian activists on social media speculate that it has been several weeks since he was killed and that the government is releasing the information now to divert attention away from the massacre in the Benishangul region of Ethiopia.

Two other top Tigray People’s Liberation Front (TPLF) officials, namely Abay Tsehaye and Asmelash Woldeselassie were also killed during the operation.

Colonel Kiros Hagos, who was said to have deserted the Ethiopian Defense Force to change side to TPLF force, was also killed, apparently in the same operation, according to information from the defense force.

“The TPLF officials and the military officer were repeatedly asked to surrender before they were annihilated,” said Brigadier General Tesfaye Ayalew who is head of the deployment department in the Ethiopian Defense Force.

Furthermore, the Ethiopian Defense Force announced lists of military officers who were captured in the operation:

1) Colonel Gebremeskel Gebrekidan (deserted from Ethiopian Defense Force)

2) Colonel Fisseha Kidane (deserted from Ethiopian Defense Force)

3) Colonel Zerabruk Tadesse (deserted from Ethiopian Defense Force)

4) Commander Gebrekidan Asgedom (was commander of Tigray Special Forces)

5) Ato Mebrhatom Kinde (Tigray region government official)

There are still key TPLF leaders who are neither confirmed dead nor captured. Brigadier General Tesfaye Ayalew extended the call to surrender.

Several TPLF leaders including Sebhat Nega and Abay Woldu were captured last week.

እስናይፕ ለማደን የምታስቸግር የህንድ ወፍ ነው ። እሷን ሚያድኑ እስናይፐር ይባላሉ ። ባገራችን ኢላማ ወይም አርማ የምንለው ምልከት ወይም ስዕል ማለት ነው ። ምልክት አድርጎ መተኮስ ማለት ነው ። የስዩም ገዳይ በመነጽሩ ውስጥ ምልክት አለቸው፣ የመስቀል ምልክት ። በዚያ አልሞ ቃታ ይስባል፣ ጥይት ምልክቱ ላይ ይቀዳል ።

The verb "to snipe" originated in the 1770s among soldiers in British India in reference to shooting snipes, which was considered an extremely challenging game bird for hunters due to its alertness, camouflaging color and erratic flight behavior. ... The agent noun "sniper" appears by the 1820s. (ዊኪፒዲያ)

If TPLF officials are willing to surrender, ENDF will not kill them. Look at the following text and picture. You can not get such respect to captured enemy soldiers in other part of the world than Ethiopia.

From my point of view, as far as the military found their hiding places, they should not be in hurry to kill them. In deed they might need to eliminate their guards, but, even if the wanted juntas were in the mood of firing bullets, the military should have been waited until they grabbed them. No needed to harm them because three or more people couldn't bring harm to the military.

Amid the usual all but unverifiable claims of heroic battlefield victories, Tigray's ousted government suggests that Seyoum, Abay, and Asemelash refused to surrender, and also says that they were killed last week.

"Amhara militia executed them. Then posed with their bodies. Then posted this disgusting & abhorrent photos on social media for Amhara extremist on Thursday. This is the LAST red line crossed. What the hell are they doing ? This were Tigray elder leaders. GATES OF HELL has opened."

From my point of view, as far as the military found their hiding places, they should not be in hurry to kill them( they were given enough time to surrender...Weeks + 24 hours ) . In deed they might need to eliminate their guards, but, even if the wanted juntas were in the mood of firing bullets, the military should have been waited until they grabbed them ( You can not wait for a very long time and risk being ambushed and attacked by others hiding in the area. For an intelligent person you take things in a very simple way. ). No needed to harm them ( Imbaye Mesfin Gebre-Dingel is a war criminal. In addition to that he was the one who gave orders to attack the NC. ) because three or more people couldn't bring harm to the military.
