"Mazlum-Der" reacted with a written statement to the Ethiopian government, which attacked Muslims and destroyed mosques for unlawful reasons.
In his statement, "Mazlum-Der" invited the international community to take the necessary measures against the inhumane treatment carried out against Muslims in Ethiopia.
What happened in Ethiopia, one of the most ancient countries in Africa for the last few years, turned into systematic attacks against Muslims this time.
After the previous internal turmoil, this time in the country, actions violating human rights began to be carried out against other religious groups, especially Muslims.
Addis Ababa administration's demolition of mosques was met with reaction from both the region and other countries.
The Association for Human Rights and Solidarity for the Oppressed (MAZLUM-DER) reacted with a written statement to the Ethiopian administration's attacks on Muslims.
ILLEGAL ATTACKS AGAINST MUSLIMS CONTINUE
In the statement, it was stated that the Ethiopian government used systematic violence against Muslims who make up 30 percent of the country's population.
"In six towns surrounding the capital Addis Ababa, hundreds of buildings, houses, 20 mosques and Quranic schools were allegedly destroyed on the grounds that they were 'illegal' on the grounds of 'building a modern city'. The Ethiopian government has not yet made a statement regarding the events that led to the death of many Muslims and the destruction of mosques. The Oromiya State Government, where the events intensified, claimed that the demolitions only targeted illegal structures and argued that the process was legal. On the other hand, Ethiopian Supreme Council of Islamic Affairs called for calm on Muslims on 3 June, and despite the positive response to the call, it was stated that Muslims were targeted again after Friday prayers," the syndicate said in a statement.
“WE CONTINUE TO TAKE MEASURES WITH THE INTERNATIONAL COMMUNITY”
Noting that Ethiopia has just emerged from a civil war that lasted two years and resulted in numerous human rights violations in which thousands of civilians lost their lives in the Tigray region, the statement continued as follows:
"Despite the human rights violations in this civil war, the international community could not react adequately. In order to avoid a similar situation; Ethiopian government, to give satisfactory information to the public about the events, to abandon oppressive and totalitarian practices for whatever reason and to act on the basis of humanitarian law; We invite the international community to take the necessary measures against the inhumane treatment carried out against Muslims in Ethiopia."
