Amnesty Report: Over 1,800 Killed in South-East Nigeria

Amnesty International has raised alarm over an escalating wave of killings, abductions, and disappearances in Nigeria's South-East.

The human rights group accuses both state and non-state actors of turning the region into a "killing field" in its latest report, A Decade of Impunity: Attacks and Unlawful Killings in Southeast Nigeria.

The authorities' persistent failure to protect citizens and enforce accountability has created "a free-for-all reign of impunity,"

where security forces, armed groups, and vigilantes operate without restraint.

Author's summary: Amnesty International reports on killings in Nigeria's South-East.
