July 2016 fighting was a serious obstacle for peace in South Sudan showing unpredictable situation, says Zeid Ra’ad Al Hussein, UN High Commissioner for Human Rights.
Civilians are living under the risk of mass atrocities, the official points out in the report.
The Transitional Government of National Unity should take action to break the cycle of violence and impunity, the report urges.
It presses the government to take steps to fully support quick establishment of the Hybrid Court for South Sudan by the African Union.
