The ERI, West Africa Office has compiled an extensive Human Rights Report detailing the atrocities committed by the Ivory Coast Military. We demand reparations (for the murders, rapes, and disease inflicted on a region of the country) on behalf of the people of the Ivory Coast. Between 2008 and 2010, rogue Ivory Coast soldiers under the Armed Forces of the Forces Nouvelles murdered humanitarian aid workers, occupied and looted ERI sites, tortured and raped women, and systematically contaminated humanitarian workers with HIV/AIDS and tuberculosis.
