The human rights situation in the north-west and south-west of Cameroon is concerning. Recent incidents have caused tragic civilian casualties on 1 June and a hospital being burnt on 8 June. Violations are likely being committed by all sides. We welcome the government investigation into the incident on 1 June and have called on all parties to protect civilians.
