Anglophone crisis

A military court in Cameroon has sentenced three soldiers to jail terms for the deaths of 21 civilians in the country's restive Anglophone region, though legal experts and human rights advocates argue the penalties fall short of the gravity of the crimes.

In a landmark yet controversial ruling, three Cameroonian soldiers have been jailed for killing 21 civilians in the country's conflict-torn Anglophone region, marking a rare moment of military accountability that legal experts say falls far short of genuine justice.
