France, Nov. 14 -- South Sudanese authorities have failed to investigate the killing of more than 200 people in Abiemnom town in March, while the United Nations Mission in South Sudan - UNMISS - failed to take all available measures to prevent the attack, according to a report published by Amnesty International on Thursday.

The rights organisation said both the government and UN peacekeepers had received advance warnings of the assault, raising serious questions about their response and the continued lack of accountability for those responsible.

The massacre took place in the early hours of 1 March 2026, when hundreds of armed men stormed the town, close to Sudan's southern border, killing residents and destroying homes and property.
