Joshua is one of the agents that fuel the war in South Sudan. Riek is a criminal, who told innocent lives for decades he must face Justice.
A South Sudanese citizen who is well aware about the political situation in south Sudan currently , I will hundred percent agreed with him. Yes Salva is the one who is starting this situation. Those he claims that are opposition soldier are just civilian who are just protecting themselves and defend themselves when the were attack by Salva kirr militias group command by himself. I am not trying to b biased with the truth I am really pouring out to outside world that we defenseless civilian dying everyday because of Salva kirr Mayardit's ruthlessness

The Unforgivable Silence: A Call for Justice and Recognition of the Dinka Bor Genocide
How long will history remain silent? How long will we pretend that the blood of our fathers, mothers, brothers, and sisters did not flood the land of Bor? How long will the world turn a blind eye to the horrors of 1991 and 2013? The Dinka Bor Genocide is not a matter of political debate it is a historical fact, a stain on the conscience of South Sudan, and an unhealed wound on the soul of the Dinka Bor people.
The hypocrisy is unbearable. The world commemorates other genocides the Holocaust, the Rwandan Genocide, the Armenian Genocide yet when it comes to the Dinka Bor Genocide, there is an eerie silence. Why? Is the suffering of the Dinka Bor people less important? Is our pain less worthy of recognition? Or is it because the perpetrator, Dr. Riek Machar Teny Dhurgon, still walks freely, holding political power as if his hands are not drenched in the blood of innocents?
We cannot rewrite history, but we must correct the shameful omission of this atrocity from global memory. The 1991 massacre, carried out under Machar’s leadership, left thousands dead, villages burned, and entire communities erased. The survivors, many of whom were forced into starvation and exile, still carry the scars. In 2013, the same evil returned, bringing renewed suffering and destruction upon Bor. The intent was clear: to exterminate the Dinka Bor people. If that is not genocide, then what is?
A crime is a crime. There is no justification. There is no excuse. The world must know, and we must demand that history record the truth. It is time to put the commemoration of the Dinka Bor Genocide on the calendar, to build memorials, to educate the next generation, and to ensure that those responsible are held accountable. We owe this to our fallen. We owe this to the future.
To ignore this genocide is to participate in its erasure. We will not be silent. We will not forget. The Dinka Bor Genocide must be recognized because justice delayed is justice denied.

Thanks to our nation
Its a religious battle. Islam is slowly encroaching/displacing black Africa south of the Sahel.
He is not above the laws
Only two communities are the cost of this suffering
From New York city ✨️
He spoke like a member of IO
These media is bias, you are ignoring to ask vital questions.
Like what caused the recent problem, in which country can civilians attack the government position and u guys think the government will never react.
If you have nothing to report, you better keep quiet
Nothing will happen in sudan they're in a mess powerful playing thier game power grab,already southerners have changed thier hat.
Dictatorship kiir and his co work are crime
The arrest of Vice President Riek Machar marks a dangerous turning point for South Sudan, potentially undoing years of progress achieved through the 2018 peace agreement. The actions taken by the government could exacerbate ethnic tensions and push the nation toward renewed civil conflict. As a concerned South Sudanese citizen, I urge all political leaders, including President Salva Kiir and the SPLM-IO, to prioritize dialogue and uphold their commitments to peace for the sake of the nation's stability and prosperity. It is essential for regional and international bodies to step up their efforts to mediate the situation before it escalates further.
STOP KILLING CIVILIANS🙏
Credit to the reporter for mentioning Nuer civilians bombing, something the government and many south Sudanese don’t want to hear or talk about…may the soul of the innocent children and women rest in peace…

With all do respect Al-jazeera, these are wrong information and miss information that your reporter is saying, Kindly provide correct info.
South Sudan 🇸🇩 president and Ethiopian 🇪🇹 prime minster are evils , both committed Genocide .
Politics it's a western ideology not Africa. That's why we witness wars in our motherland
Politics it's a disaster in Africa.
We south Sudanese need western countries mostly American to stay away from south Sudanese affairs
It seem like ICC U.N arrested presidents from sudan, Philippines, other nation some even unknown changes. But natanyahu with evidence eveyday new crimes on going genocide even killed U.N workers only a word of condemned and no actions mmmm i start to think ICC, international laws ICJ U.N are under Apac lobbying??
The question arises why UN knows south sudan is on the brink of war. UN are the one who lead south sudan on the war
Bla Bla Bla 😂, It's easy to spit nonsense while in another country, President Kiir has managed to restore peace in SS, people are back to normal lives, if the opposition can't recognize that, they are better off in Jail. South Sudanese should not give up this progress because of the jihadists news channel. We stand with Peace and prosperity for SS 🙏 🇺🇬
This report is one sided/not well researched. We have reporters on the ground who are knowledgeable about local/national politics, why not have a hem report it?
President kiir of South Sudan is dying, and he wants the country to die with him.
The white army will fight
We will get the president of Uganda one day.
These are the truth of how things started going ugly. Kiir is illiterate president who believes in manpower solution over political solution
Un live him done peace will come then do same to president then make Rebecca Nyadeng president of South Sudan South sudan will be great under her rule
South Sudan 🇸🇸 need a new president and vice president
Uganda hosts over 880,000 South Sudanese refugees, primarily in its northern districts, making it a significant host country for South Sudanese refugees.
Think about it my people🤔 do you think the war in South Sudan affects Ugandas too. East Africa stand strong in fact become one country.
VICE PRESIDENT AND IS THE CIC THAT IS WRONG ,CIC SHOULD BE THE PRESIDEND ONLY ,REMOVE POWERS OF CIC FROM HIM.
THAN THE COUNTRY WILL BE OK
Your guess is a lire and is just a puppet to the opposition against the government.
VERY VERY ONE SIDED BENJAMIN NETANYAHU KILLED PALESTINES HE NOT ARRESTED 😮😮😮😮😮
But how does someone in NY give a brief about something in Africa, how pathetic.
