South Sudan has been riven by conflict since 2013, two years after seceding from North Sudan. Swaka said the military, police and other security branches systematically recruited Dinka from the president and chief of army staff's home region. He also said "soldiers from the Dinka ethnic group have been strategically deployed and posted in non-Dinka areas to support the policy of land occupation." Officials say any soldier committing abuses will be held to account and the president said on Monday any soldier committing rape should be shot.
