Civilians in South Sudan continue to flee in all directions
Almost 100,000 South Sudanese have fled to neighboring Ethiopia
Inevitably, civilians suffer most from armed conflict
Competing armed groups make South Sudan one of the most dangerous places in the world
Survivors: People who were wounded in the Bentiu slaughter of April 15 – 16
The fighting and violence in South Sudan has exploded with shocking speed; and yet it continues to accelerate, with no sign the international community is prepared to protect large civilians populations acutely at risk or to ensure humanitarian relief is adequate.
The Nuer “White Army” is a young and only partially controlled militia force; they are responsible for some of the worst atrocities to date in South Sudan, although ethnic slaughter on both sides of the Dinka/Nuer ethnic divide is growing.

Rebel forces in South Sudan, also known as the Sudan People’s Liberation Army-In Opposition (SPLA-IO). These forces seized the town of Bentiu on April 15-16 and engaged in unprecedented civilian slaughter of Dinkas and Darfuris.
