In the report titled “ Today or Tomorrow. They Should Be Brought Before Justice” – Rape, Sexual Slavery, Extra-Judicial Executions and Pillage by Eritrean Forces in Tigray” , published by Amnesty International, the organization documented the involvement of Eritrean Defense Forces (EDF) soldiers, allied to the federal government of Ethiopia, in cases of rape, sexual slavery, extrajudicial executions and pillage. Despite suffering numerous injuries, the rape and sexual slavery survivors interviewed during the investigation did not receive any comprehensive medical care after the incident. Most of them only received treatment after the withdrawal of the Eritrean Defense Forces from Kokob Tsibah on January 19, 2023. “ They raped me in turns for the entire three months. They didn't leave me at any time. One left and the next came. Is there anything that the FDE did not do? We were locked up [in the camp] from the day they took us there. We could not go out or receive medical assistance. We couldn't visit our family.
There were many other women detained with me,” declared a survivor.

The rapes took place in two villages that the organization had USA Phone Number investigated: Min Gyi, in Maungdaw township, and Kyun Pauk, in Buthidaung township. Myanmar's military forces divided the older men and boys from the younger women and girls. After shooting the first, the soldiers led the women in groups towards nearby houses where rapes occurred, and then set fire to those houses and other areas inhabited by Rohingya in the village.
They took the women in groups to different houses […] There were five of us [women], who were taken away by four soldiers [in military uniforms]. They took our money and belongings and then beat us with a wooden stick. My children were with me. They also beat them. Shafi, my two-year-old son, was beaten severely with a wooden stick. One blow, and he was dead […] They killed three of my children. Also to Mohamed Osman (10 years old) [and] Mohamed Saddiq (5 years old). Other women [in the house] also had children [with them] who they killed.” “ They stripped all the women naked […] [The soldiers] carried very strong wooden sticks. First they hit us on the head, to weaken us. Then they hit us [in the vagina] with the wooden sticks. Then they raped us. A different soldier for each one.” Women war survivors These women survived the horrible conditions of the Bama Hospital camp, fleeing the armed conflict in Nigeria.
