حكومة الا نقاذ تعمل علي ابادة شعب جبال النوبة فهل انتم معها؟

1. On 5 June 2011, violence broke out in Southern Kordofan between the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) and the Sudan People’s Liberation Army (SPLA). In the ensuing days, the United Nations Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR) and the Human Rights Component of the United Nations Mission to Sudan (UNMIS Human Rights) received reports of serious violations of international human rights and international humanitarian law, including extrajudicial killings, arbitrary arrests and illegal detention, enforced disappearances, attacks against civilians, #####ng of civilian homes and destruction of property.
2. In light of these reports, UNMIS Human Rights Officers conducted preliminary investigations into a number of serious incidents in South Kordofan. UNMIS Human Rights Officers conducted on-site visits to some affected areas and met with a wide range of actors, including victims and witnesses, state and local authorities, security personnel, political, religious and community leaders. Interviews were also conducted with IDPs in Southern Kordofan, El Obeid and Khartoum, UN personnel, NGOs and media sources.
3. This report is a summary of the preliminary findings of UNMIS Human Rights of the events in Southern Kordofan covering the period 5 to 30 June 2011. The mandate of UNMIS ended on 9 July 2011 and UNMIS personnel, including human rights staff have since withdrawn from South Kordofan. The collection and verification of information on alleged human rights abuses in this report was conducted during a period of active conflict and subject to restrictions including movement of staff to areas under the control of SAF, Sudan People’s Liberation Army – North (SPLA-N), and militia elements. UNMIS Human Rights officers also exercised caution in obtaining interviews from victims and witnesses due to concerns over witness protection and a fear of reprisals. Background
4. Southern Kordofan is inhabited by approximately 2,500,000 people (2000) with over 100 ethnic communities; the majority population is represented by nomadic Misseriya and Hawazma Arabs and agriculturalist African Nuba. In the Kadugli area and surrounding Nuba Mountains, the population is predominantly Nuba. Marginalization of the Nuba ethnic communities by the Government of Sudan led some of them to take up arms along with the Sudan People’s Liberation Army (SPLA), during the North-South war between 1983 and 2005. Nuban communities faced a brutal counter-insurgency campaign until a ceasefire in 2003.
5. The security arrangements agreed upon under the Comprehensive Peace Agreement, signed in 2005 between the Government of Sudan (GoS) and the Sudan People’s Liberation Movement (SPLM), provided for the formation of Joint Integrated Units (JIUs) consisting of equal numbers of SAF and SPLA personnel. JIUs were not only a symbol of sovereignty and national unity, but were also intended to provide for the security of the country during the interim period of the CPA. No major security incidents were reported in Southern Kordofan up until the electoral period, although both parties were accused of not fulfilling some of their commitments to the Ceasefire Agreement: the SPLA-N failed to withdraw its troops south of the 1.1.56 border, while the SAF refused to reduce its troop numbers to peacetime levels and dissolve the Popular Defence Forces (PDF) and other Misseriya and Hawazma militias.
