South Sudan Red Cross: "We collected many bodies from Gudele, Jebel, J1, Bilpam Road, Gieta, Munuki, and the checkpoint. Bodies were separated into three groups, so that one mass grave contained people from the Government, one for opposition soldiers and the third mass grave contained civilians. The number of mass graves increased after the days of fighting. SSRC is not authorised to say the number buried because as the Government releases the official number. "We collected dead bodies for almost 7 days across those areas," South Sudan Red Cross said.
