Janjaweed Militia Continues to Destroy Villages in Darfur

CHERO KASI, SUDAN - SEPTEMBER 7: An armed Sudanese rebel from the Justice and Equality Movement (JEM) arrives at the abandoned village of Chero Kasi less than an hour after Janjaweed militiamen set it ablaze in the violence plagued Darfur region September 7, 2004. United States Secretary of State Colin Powell told a U.S. congressional committee this week that the ethnic violence in Sudan amounts to "genocide" and a U.S. sponsored resolution calling for sanctions against the Sudan government was debated at the United Nations in New York.
