Tghat
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Tghat describes its creation during the Tigray War as motivated by communication blocks and the lack of reporting on "Tigrayan collective national sentiment, and the atrocities committed upon Tigrayans".[4]
Editorship
France 24 describes the Tghat editorial group as "Tigrayan activists living abroad".[1] Meron Gebreananaye describes herself as a United Kingdom-based PhD student and one of the Tghat editors.[5] Gebrekirstos Gebreselassie Gebremeskel (aka Gebrekirstos G. Gebremeskel[6]) states that he is an Amsterdam-based researcher who manages Tghat, and is described by Al Jazeera English as a researcher and manager of Tghat.[7][8] The editorial group includes several university-based researchers.[9]
Coverage
As of 2022[update], Tghat reporting is focussed on the Tigray War.[3] Tghat describes its role as "documenting civilian casualties, the destruction of civilian infrastructure, hate campaigns, and providing perspectives and analyses on the war on Tigray".[9]
Tghat's report on the Debre Abbay massacre on 12 January 2021[2] and its publication of video footage of the massacre in early February were followed by The Daily Telegraph on 19 February 2021 and by France 24 on 10 March 2021.[1][10]
