Horrified.

"Simon K was taken to a police station in the Gudele market district of Juba, where he was marched past several dead bodies and locked in a room with other young men, all Nuer. "We counted ourselves and found we were 252," he told the Guardian. "Then they put guns in through the windows and started to shoot us."

The massacre continued for two days with soldiers returning at intervals to shoot again if they saw any sign of life. Simon was one of 12 men to survive the assault by covering themselves in the bodies of the dead and dying."

Yes it's horrific. I have family that were going to work out there, but the project has been postponed.

Watching with sadness

Today's BBC story here.

They estimate the death toll over the last ten days to be several thousand.
