(Nairobi) – South Sudan’s army, opposition forces, and their respective allied militias abused civilians causing much of the population to flee during fighting in 2025 in Nagero County, Western Equatoria, Human Rights Watch said today.
The soldiers then killed six civilians, including three boys, they rounded up at the camp.
They should also immediately end all abuses against civilians, including those it accuses of links to the army.
The UN peacekeeping mission in South Sudan (UNMISS) should continue to deploy regular protection patrols and human rights monitoring missions to Nagero county.
