  • Sudanese military planes bombed civilian and humanitarian targets in southern Sudan at least 152 times during 2000, according to a compilation by the U.S. Committee for Refugees of bombing reports filed by humanitarian workers in the field. That is an average of nearly three bombings each week. Eight additional bombings have occurred during the first three weeks of 2001.
