CWN Editor's Note: The bishops of Sudan and South Sudan issued a statement deploring the massacre of over 170 civilians in South Sudan.
“We condemn, in the strongest possible terms, these heinous and senseless killings,” the bishops said. “There can be no justification whatsoever for the murder of innocent civilians. Such acts are an offence against God, the Author of Life, and a grave sin against humanity.”
In its reporting on the massacre, BBC attributed the violence to “a group of unidentified men.”
