Tigray People's Liberation Front (TPLF) has accused the guarantors of the Pretoria Peace Agreement—the United States, the European Union, the African Union, and the United Nations of failing to act on their commitments, alleging that a "silent genocide" continues in Tigray nearly three years after the accord was signed.

In a statement issued on 29 September 2025, the party urged the international community to intervene to halt what it described as the ongoing destruction of the region. "We appeal to the international community: act now. Do not allow Tigray's destruction to continue in silence. Honor your commitment to peace, protect the innocent, and prevent another unheeded tragedy," it said.

The TPLF cited worsening humanitarian conditions, referencing the recent death of a one-year-and-four-month-old Naod Hailesselassie, killed by a hyena inside an internally displaced persons (IDP) shelter in Mekelle.
