Who Was Responsible For June 6, 1993? (Carter Camp - Margibi County 🇱🇷🙁🇱🇷 Liberia) #politics #africa
Medical workers in Liberia said that 547 bodies had been buried after a massacre of civilians on Sunday and that the death toll could reach 600.
The interim Government has ordered two investigations into the killings, at Carter Camp, a farming area near Harbel, and officials said the Government forces did not do enough to stop the massacre.
Survivors and the Government say that Charles Taylor's rebel group, the National Patriotic Front of Liberia, carried out the killings.
Mr. Taylor's group has repeatedly denied responsibility and says a West African intervention force and the Government militia are to blame.
Health workers at Harbel, 40 miles east of Monrovia, said most of the dead were women and children. They said more bodies had been found in the Du River and along its banks.
The international force captured the Harbel area from the rebels in February and controls it nominally, but the Government militia was guarding Carter Camp on the night of the massacre. The intervention force was sent to Liberia in 1990 by the Economic Community of West African states in an attempt to end the civil war.
In addition to the Defense Ministry investigation, the interim President, Amos Sawyer, ordered a military advisory board to investigate the killings, and the United Nations special representative to Liberia, Trevor Gordon-Somers, arrived Wednesday to make his own investigation.
