WARNING - GRAPHIC VIOLENCE. VIEWER DISCRETION ADVISED: Human Rights Watch released a video on February 11, 2019, that shows government forces' extreme violence and shocking abuses against protesters during weeks of largely peaceful protests across the country. The United Nations Human Rights Council should urgently respond to the human rights crisis in Sudan at its March session and ensure an independent investigation into the violations committed since the start of protests in December 2018.
