NOTE: Some on Twitter describe @tekerebanelim as "a fanatic
propagandist of the Eritrean government - she is not a credible source
of information." However, others in the Eritrea diaspora are saying
that Reporters Without Borders's info was not corroborated, and even
some who are close to the story are alleging as much as well.
