Human Rights Watch exposes the ethnic cleansing campaign which continues in Darfur even after the signing of Sudan's peace accord: As recently as yesterday, Arab militias attacked five villages 15 kilometers south of Nyala in Darfur, killing 46 civilians and wounding at least nine others, according to local sources. The militias, known as Janjaweed, were accompanied by government soldiers in three Land Cruisers armed with antiaircraft artillery. Human Rights Watch has extensively documented how the Janjaweed have been armed, trained, and uniformed by the Sudanese government.
