I gotta say, this report is super concerning
. I mean, I'm all for defending our countries, but not at the cost of human rights and environmental damage. The allegations of rape and assault by British soldiers are just shocking
. And it's even more disturbing that local authorities were so slow to act on these cases.
I do think it's good that the British Ministry of Defence is saying they regret the challenges and will investigate new allegations, but we need to see some real action taken
. And what's with this survivor liaison unit? It's about time, right?
The environmental damage caused by Batuk's activities is just devastating
. I mean, who kills an elephant or shoots someone while herding livestock? It's just not acceptable.
I think we need to have a bigger conversation about the accountability of foreign military personnel and how we can prevent these kinds of abuses from happening in the future
. We can't just sweep it under the rug and expect everything to be okay
.
