Dear Sir/ Madam
Tigray Youth Association is a youth- oriented civil society organization head quartered in Mekele, Tigray, Ethiopia. Established some three decades ago, Tigray Youth Association has been working jointly with local and international partners in enhancing the very participations and benefits of youth members in all developmental aspects. Tigray Youth Association is gravely concerned to receive reports of the death threats of Ethiopian nationals who are being held at various detention centers of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
Tigray Youth Association is also learnt that majority number of the detainees reportedly at risk of imminent ex*****on are Tigrayan youths who are migrated from the genocidal war- torn Tigray region of northern Ethiopia. Those young people with genocidal war- related physical and mental severe abuses are desperately migrated in search of better life with out sufficient knowledge of the host country's law-abiding.
Indeed, Tigray Youth Association firmly believes that all sovereign dignities of a given country should be respected. In spite of that, it would take in to account how the situation for youths in Tigray is exceptionally severe due to the lingering impacts of the 2020-2022 genocidal war and even the inconvenience setting after the Pretoria cessation of hostilities agreement, which created a deep humanitarian crisis.
Therefore, Tigray Youth Association respectfully call up on the International community, ,and Human Rights Organizations to pursue an urgent diplomatic solution with the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia authorities.
Our organization would like to thank you in advance for your quick and positive response, considering urgency of the matter.
Respectfully,
Tigray Youth Association
