In 2022, government forces and affiliated militias brutally attacked civilians in Leer and parts of southern Unity state. No one has been brought to justice for these war crimes, some of which may also constitute crimes against humanity. #SouthSudan hrw.org/news/2025/05/1…
While some implicated officials were dismissed from office, it is unclear if this was due to their role in 2022 abuses. The findings of the government's investigation have not been published. Accountability should reach its full conclusion. Victims deserve justice and redress.
The govt should build on justice efforts of the UN supported mobile court in Leer & start a credible process to address the serious crimes committed there including by establishing the hybrid court with the AU. unmiss.unmissions.org/first-mobile-c…
Across #SouthSudan, impunity drives new cycles of abuse. President Kiir should ensure an end to attacks on civilians and other serious abuses, and criminal prosecutions against those responsible for serious crimes hrw.org/news/2025/05/1…
