Targeted Killings of Innocent Civilians in the Nuba Mountains of South Sudan

“About the current situation in the Nuba Mountains, there is intensive fighting going on…A continued fighting jets bombardment all over the Mountains is a daily program for the Sudanese Government. Twenty people were killed in Kurchi three weeks ago. Three victims died in Alatmor village. Hundreds are reported injured. The report from the Sudanese Government says that the military should clear the Nuba Mountains and destroy all churches built by the Samaritan Purse, but we trust that God the Creator of the universe will not allow this to happen to His beloved creation. Brother…we are God’s children, and we confidently own His protection and strength.”
The Church and membership, many of whom are Nuban, have been subjects of targeted attacks by the SAF and Government of Sudan police since the violence erupted in Southern Kordofan…Reported human rights violations include: aerial bombardments resulting in destruction of property; forced displacement; significant loss of civilian lives, including women, children, and the elderly; abductions; house-to-house searches; arbitrary arrests and detentions; targeted killings; summary executions; reports of mass graves; systematic destruction of dwellings and attacks on churches.” To download the full report, please click here.
This situation is VERY worrying indeed. Please pray that God would turn into good, what the enemy intends for evil. God still reign supreme – praise Him for that. Please keep fellow brethren in the Nuba Mountains under severe oppression right now in your prayers.
Blessings,
