(FILES) South Sudan's Vice-President Riek Machar makes a speech during the graduation ceremony of the new members of Unified Forces who have been on training since the implementation of the revitalized peace agreement in 2018 at Dr. John Garang Mausoleum in Juba on August 30, 2022. South Sudan's Vice-President Riek Machar has been charged with murder, terrorism and crimes against humanity over an attack on a military base that killed more than 250 soldiers, the justice minister said on September 11, 2025. The charges relate to an attack in March by a militia known as the White Army, which the government claims was acting under the orders of Machar, who has been under house arrest for months as part of a power struggle with his long-time rival, President Salva Kiir.
