Facebook has deleted a post by Ethiopia’s prime minister, Abiy Ahmed, for violating its policies against inciting violence.
Ahmed in a Facebook post on Sunday, had asked citizens to take up arms to block the advance of rebel group, Tigray People’s Liberation Front (TPLF).
He had asked Ethiopians “to temporarily hold occasional affairs, organise and march through legal manner with every weapon and power/might in order to prevent, reverse and bury the terrorist TPLF”.
He made the post after the rebels took control of more towns in the country.
The conflict between the Ethiopian government and the TPLF escalated in November 2020 when the rebel forces seized military bases in Tigray, a northern region.
Abiy, in response, sent more troops into Tigray but the TPLF said the government and its allies launched a “coordinated attack” against its fighters and that parts of its capital city were attacked by soldiers.
Thousands of people have reportedly been killed and more than 2.5 million forced to exit their homes since the conflict began.
A spokesperson for Facebook told the BBC the post was removed for violating its policies.
“We were made aware of a post by Ethiopia’s Prime Minister and removed this for violating our policies against inciting and supporting violence,” the spokesperson said.
“At Meta, we remove content from individuals or organizations that violates our community standards, no matter who they are.”
