Dear Supporters
Greetings to all of you. Thank you for your continued support of the Tigray refugees in Sudan.
There have been lots of suffering in the midst of the Tigrayan refugees in Sudan. There have been tornadoes, floods, and the recent fire. The recent fire has destroyed the shelters and many people lost their personal property including clothing.
The global efforts to bring peace to Ethiopia continued. The Africa Union with support from the USA and the EU has been working on that. Recently the combatants met in Pretoria, Republic of South Africa, and agreed on the cessation of hostilities. The military leaders of Ethiopia and Tigray met in Nairobi, Kenya and to implement the ceasefire and the restoration of the basic infrastructure in Tigray including the telephone, banks, federal and regional educational institutions as well as humanitarian supply. Some meetings have taken place in Tigray but the work is still continuing.
The work of restoration is in its infancy but we are hoping it is continuing. The Eritrean soldiers that helped the Federal government and the Amhara militia are still in Tigray and expected to leave Tigray according to the agreement.
Once the foreign troops are out we believe the internally displaced people (IDP) will return to their homes and the Tigrayan refugees in Sudan will plan to return home. That will be good news but we don't know when that will happen.
We will continue to raise our funds as the needs of the returnees will continue. Please continue to spread the word about our project. I will keep you updated on the issues.
Again thank you for your continued support.
