The U.N. rights chief Monday slammed a lack of action to rein in increasingly brutal conflicts around the world, describing places like Syria, Yemen and Myanmar as "prolific slaughterhouses".
"Eastern Ghouta, the other besieged areas in Syria, Ituri and the Kasais in the [Democratic Republic of Congo], Taiz in Yemen, Burundi, Northern Rakhine in Myanmar have become some of the most prolific slaughterhouses of humans in recent times because not enough was done, early and collectively, to prevent the rising horrors," Zeid Raad al-Hussein told the U.N. Human Rights Council.
