As I pointed out yesterday, @netblocks@mastodon.social confirmed region wide comms outages in Tigray yesterday. HRW and the UN were able to use phones and the internet to contact sources and compile the data for these reports. But it will become increasingly difficult going forward for journalists and human rights investigators. There is reason to fear for civilians, and you can expect an effort to weaponize the blackout to ensure suffering remains undocumented. https://dair-community.social/@ZekuZelalem/117329108621364702
