Hi, my name is <Name> and I live in <City, State>. I am calling because I am heartbroken by the military invasion of Amhara Region by the Tigray People’s Liberation Front also known as TPLF. A few days ago, the TPLF invaded into the North Wollo zone in Amhara Region again, killing civilians, looting and destroying property, and displacing thousands. In 2021, during the last large scale invasion of Amhara Region, the TPLF massacred thousands of civilians, raped thousands of Amhara women, and displaced millions. Presently, nearly 7 million Amharas need food assistance just to survive and are on brink of famine. The invasion by TPLF is causing a humanitarian catastrophe.
I am asking my representative <Name of your Representative> to denounce and condemn this military invasion by the TPLF into Amhara Region, killing thousands of innocent civilians, and holding millions of civilian Amharas hostage for their political agenda. I am afraid if these attacks are not condemned the war will continue resulting in more innocent people dead and displaced.
Please call EVERYDAY and share the script with family and friends!!!!
