  • SOUTH SUDAN: WAR CRIMES BY BOTH SIDES

    Feature
    Duration : 2m 38s
    Both pro and anti-government armed forces are responsible for serious abuses that may amount to war crimes in two key oil hubs in South Sudan during recent fighting, Human Rights Watch said today.
    Human Rights Watch researchers visited Malakal and Bentiu, the capitals of two oil-producing states, between January 29 and February 14, 2014. Researchers found that armed forces from both sides have extensively looted and destroyed civilian property, including desperately needed aid facilities, targeted civilians and carried out extrajudicial executions, often based on ethnicity.
