Teenage students are systematically subject to hard labour at an isolated military camp near the Sudanese border, with many also enduring physical abuse, the rights group said in a report.
“Now that peace with Ethiopia is restored, reforms on human rights, starting with the rights and freedom of the country’s youth, need to follow.”The Horn of Africa country has run a system of universal conscription for more than two decades, with the government justifying mandatory national service by invoking a “no peace, no war” stalemate with neighbouring Ethiopia after a border conflict from 1998 to 2000.
Conscription drives thousands, including many unaccompanied children, to leave the country each year. The HRW report said students, some under 18, are sent to the Sawa military camp for their final year of secondary school.
