Angola's forgotten war, fueled by a steady supply of weapons to both sides, has claimed an estimated 100, 000 civilian lives since the conflict resumed following the September 1992 elections. The government and the UNITA rebels are responsible for an appalling range of violations of the laws of war. Angolian government forces have engaged in indiscriminate aerial bombardments, torture, disapperance, summary executions, looting, and recruitment of child soldiers.
