RENEWED VIOLENCE
[15]In 2011, following the Comprehensive Peace Agreement, South Sudan voted overwhelmingly to separate from the north and establish their own country. Unfortunately, independence did not erase the many ethnic and political divisions among South Sudanese citizens. In December 2013, violence broke out between two opposing political factions10 on the streets of Juba, the capital city. One group sided with the President, Salva Kiir, and the other group sided with his former Vice President, Riek Machar, who had been accused of trying to steal political power. Civil war re- ignited across South Sudan. The fighting continues as of 2017.Q3 A HUMAN RIGHTS CRISIS The endless cycle of violence in Sudan and South Sudan led to harrowing11 atrocities against innocent people. The international community has condemned12 human rights violations committed by all sides during these wars. Since the start of the Second Civil War, more than 4 million people have been forced from their homes. Some of the displaced people headed to nearby countries, where they live in refugee camps. Others have fled to safer, more desolate parts of Sudan. Refugees struggle to attain access to basic necessities such as food, clean water, and shelter. In the same time period, over 2 million people have perished.13 Some have faced ethnically-motivated killings (such as the genocide in Darfur). Still others have died of starvation because of the drought. Soldiers often burn villages, kidnap civilians, and steal possessions and animals. [20]It is also common for soldiers from all sides to kidnap young boys from a village and force them to serve as child soldiers. Child soldiers are often not given enough to eat and are sent into the deadliest battles. Nearly 5 million more people remain in desperate need of food and other aid. Efforts from international organizations like the United Nations have not proven sufficient to relieve the suffering of Sudanese and South Sudanese refugees.Q4 1.
