Abstract: 

On February 20, 2020, the UN Council on Human Rights (UNCHR) released a report by the UN Commission on Human Rights in South Sudan finding that millions of South Sudanese civilians “have been deliberately deprived of access to basic services and many deliberately starved.”[1] The report was delivered to the Council for its forty-third session scheduled for March.
