Click Here For Sudan: Documenting Atrocities in Darfur

"When describing attacks, refugees often referred to GOS soldiers and Jingaweit militias as a unified group; as one refugee stated, 'The soldiers and Jingaweit, always they are together.' The primary victims have been non-Arab residents of Darfur. Numerous credible reports corroborate the use of racial and ethnic epithets by both the Jingaweit and GOS military personnel; 'Kill the slaves; Kill the slaves!' and 'We have orders to kill all the blacks' are common. One refugee reported a militia member stating, 'We kill all blacks and even kill our cattle when they have black calves.' Numerous refugee accounts point to mass abductions, including persons driven away in GOS vehicles, but respondents usually do not know the abductees' fate. A few respondents indicated personal knowledge of mass executions and gravesites. "
