Hundreds of thousands have been beaten, raped, and killed. The villages they have lived in since they were born, the attributes of their civil society, and the intimate social structures that bound them together have been obliterated. Presents a PHR collected eyewitness testimony from dozens of Darfurian refugees in Chad and found ample evidence of an organized attempt to destroy non-Arab groups. PHR called the actions of the perpetrators genocide, and identified indicators of genocide, including consistent patterns of targeting non-Arabs, destruction of villages, pursuing non-Arabs with intent to make them leave their villages, raping non-Arab women, and forcing everyone out of their villages into hostile terrain.
