🇲🇲#Myanmar: @ASEAN’s weekend summit failed thousands of political prisoners & undermined a transition back to democratic civilian rule.

Civic space in 🇪🇹#Ethiopia’s #Tigray region has dramatically declined.

The conflict in the northern Ethiopian state of Tigray is under-reported. #Ethiopia further limits reporting by arresting journalists and media workers covering the conflict, including four recently arrested #Tigray
🇲🇲#Myanmar: The military junta has ignored the @ASEAN consensus to end the violence. Instead, the military has launched air strikes against civilians & continued with mass arrests. Listen to this message from @DebbieStot, Founder of @Altsean#WhatsHappeningInMyanmar
