Despite findings, in an annual State Department report on human trafficking that in 2009, the government of Chad conscripted refugee children for unlawful use as guards and combatants in its desert battles against rebel forces; the army of the Democratic Republic of Congo forced children to carry ammunition and supplies through the jungle, and some died under their weight; hundreds of boys and girls were forced into the army of southern Sudan, despite a commitment to release them; and in Yemen, children as young as 14 make up perhaps half the ranks of both the government?s forces and the rebels opposing them.
The US Govt is allowing US military aid to continue to Chad, Sudan, DR Congo and the Yemen, issuing a waiver this week of a 2008 law, the child soldiers prevention act.
