Darfur update


GENEVA (AFP) — A group of UN experts monitoring Darfur said Monday that serious human rights violations appeared to be continuing in the strife-torn western Sudanese region.

According to the UN, more than two million have fled their homes, and at least 200,000 have died from famine and conflict since Khartoum enlisted militia allies to put down a local revolt in 2003.
