Is only me that have the feeling that these news will have no effect on the Human Rights Mockery Council meeting tomorrow?

KHARTOUM (Reuters) - Gunmen on horseback attacked a truck carrying medicine and aid in Sudan’s war-ravaged Darfur region and killed around 30 civilians on board, some of whom were burned alive, the United Nations said on Sunday.

The African Union had earlier put the death toll at 22 and said 10 others were wounded on Saturday when gunmen attacked the vehicle near Sirba, 45 km (30 miles) north of El Geneina, capital of West Darfur state and close to the Sudan-Chad border.

“Some people were shot, others were burned to death,” she said. The vehicle was carrying medicine and relief items and transporting people, Achouri added.

The violence highlights the worsening situation in Darfur where experts say around 200,000 have been killed since the conflict flared in 2003 when rebels took up arms against the government, accusing it of neglect.
