UNITED NATIONS, April 21 (UPI) -- Hundreds of people were killed in South Sudan last week after anti-government rebels, members of the Nuer tribe, targeted non-Nuer locals and foreign nationals, the United Nations Mission in South Sudan said in a statement.
Attacks at a mosque, a church and a hospital came after the rebels seized the oil hub of Bentiu, the statement said, noting hate speech, including demands that certain groups leave town and the urging of men to rape women, were heard in local radio broadcasts.
