The children of prominent Eritrean politicians detained 25 years ago are seeking answers about what happened to their parents, who were jailed without a trace in Eritrea.

The detainees are described as key political figures and war heroes. Their families have been left without clear information about their fate since they were imprisoned a quarter of a century ago.

One child said they did not even know whether their parents were still alive, underlining the uncertainty that has continued for decades. The families are now calling for information about the prisoners and an explanation of what happened to them.

The supplied material does not identify the politicians by name or provide details of any official response, trial or current whereabouts. The latest known situation is that their children continue to seek answers about the long-running detentions.
