The Central African Republic's capital of Bangui has seen its Muslim population drop from 130,000 to under 1000 over the past few months. Over the past year, thousands across CAR have been killed and nearly a million have been displaced. The United Nations recently stated that the entire Western half of the country has now been cleansed of Muslims.
CAR has never fully recovered from France's colonial rule, and it has only known ten years of a civilian government - from 1993 to 2003 - since achieving independence in 1960. Coup after coup, often with French military involvement, has led many to refer to the country as a phantom state. The current conflict has now completely erased the rule of law and order, and left the UN and international community looking confused and impotent.
In March 2013, the Séléka, a mostly Muslim rebel alliance, rose up and overthrew the corrupt government of François Bozizé, while bringing terror and chaos across the country - pillaging, killing and raping with impunity. In response, mostly Christian self-defense forces, called the anti-balaka, formed to defend CAR against Séléka attacks.
Clashes grew more frequent throughout 2013 as the Séléka grew more ruthless. In December 2013, French and African troops went in to disarm the Séléka and staunch the bloodshed. The anti-balaka, seizing on a weakened Séléka, then went on the offensive.
CAR had no real history of religious violence, and the current conflict is not based on any religious ideology. The fighting, however, turned increasingly sectarian in the fall of 2013, with revenge killings becoming the norm. And as the Séléka's power waned, the anti-balaka fed their need for revenge by brutalizing Muslim civilians.
"Too few peacekeepers were deployed too late; the challenge of disarming the Séléka, containing the anti-balaka, and protecting the Muslim minority was underestimated," Human Rights Watch said in a recent statement.
The bloodshed has not stopped. The UN is still debating whether or not to send peacekeepers. Even if a peacekeeping operation is approved, it will take six months for troops to be assembled.

The calmness of the guy laying in the back of the pickup truck after being shot was insane. " Can we please go to the hospital, otherwise we will die." then he just kind of sighs
Dan Moybler and he ended up dying ☹️
When the brother said "I will never talk to my brother again" it ripped my heart out 😥
good old shock its great are minds can over power pain and suffering even if were dumb enough to believe in some bullshit sky daddy
you cant even spell but your talking shit about religion... smh uneducated?@@Island_Kermode
Shock is one hell of a state of mind.
I come back to these documentaries each year because it’s easy to forget how grateful I need to be in life
OOF exactly all these poor children and people grew up around such death and suffering. While we live in a more stable way of life .
So you watch these for mini depressions LOL
INDIA BALL i wouldn’t go that far lol
@@someradomhater6881 Well said mate!
OOF Dude I live in Mexico and I thought shit was bad hear
The boy holding his dying, barely breathing friend/brother in the back of that truck... cannot possibly imagine going through anything like that at such a young age
He was shot, a bloodless shot.
@@vibemunster a bloodless shot?
@@vibemunster they said he was shot in the back. the bullet likely punctured a lung, i cant imagine the pain

Vice back then: Lets send reporters to warteared african countries.
Vice now: Lets send this 23 yold to a hippie community in Canada
Right! They actually used to do important and real journalism.
They’re doing some good still. Though I hear you, they do send hippy journalists around to communes and other weird niche stuff.
Right lol

The biggest problem I faced today was deciding what beach to go for a swim at.
We have no idea how lucky we are.
Well said my wise friend... Bondi way to go, you lot got better beaches than here in Blackpool mate 😄
Remo Borgia You guys are probably still trying to kill off the rest of the Aboriginals as well. Aboriginals are the real "Australians."
Sean Mcmahon
You sound like a butthurt libtard.
It kinda is though, when you look at history many places in the world have ruled. There was a time when Africa was wealthy and Australia was... wel probably not even discovered.
You are lucky in the way that you were born in the right place at the right time.
It is also not exactly possible to make major changes to a country with the snap of a finger. Even if everyone magically starts working together, it would take years for prosperity to return...
Assuming you watched this entire documentary, you should support doctors without borders: www.doctorswithoutborders.org/support-us
You can organize a fundraiser or something like that or just donate something, anything.
Imagine for example you are a black dude in the US, a few generations ago, your ancestors were taken to the US as slaves. Then slavery is abolished and ur ancestors get shitty jobs, then at some pt you are born and you get to attend good education and whatnot.
Thats "luck", what your ancestors did was get abducted and sold as slaves, the reason you are now a well-off black guy in the US is because you got lucky with the time you were born.
I miss these kinds of vice videos.

"Where are the French when you need them"
Words I haven't heard in a while
I know he was talking about the French forces, but I chuckled and felt horrible after because just before that he was talking about surrendering
'Can we please go? We are going to die otherwise.'
That got me bad.
I love how the reporter kept his cool when he's smack bang in the middle of a civil war

Look at his hands at 23:11 dude was shaking. 😂😂
I know I would be losing my shit
man the whole video is sad, but the way one of the men who were shot talked about how they were going to die with such indifference really struck me
@Oliver 2000 that's called adaptation lol
@Dsmv the kids that where shot come from a different group of people doing the shooting, you clearly have 0 comprehension skills
But hey I'd be mad too if I had to watch videos on regrowing my hair from YT lol you bigot.
What's the name of the reporter? I take my hat off him and his camera crew!
"Where are the French when you need them?"

"Christians and Muslims were one family. Then the devil came across and devided us."
This is the most intelligent thing i ever heard from a religious man.
That devil is European colonialism. They did the same with India. In India, Muslims and Hindus used to live peacefully as family. Then the British came in and carved Pakistan out of it and started an internal conflict that still is going on.
Jay Sekhon They weren't living peacefully. Many local hindu rulers resented Mughal rule prior to Britain colonizing india, and aided the british in kicking them out. And It was originally planned to have india as one nation, but religious violence BETWEEN indians THEMSELVES put an end to that idea. in fact the concept of india as one single nation was far fetched prior to Britain's rule. especially seeing as how it was a collection of very diverse and often warring kingdoms and ethnic groups.
Jay Sekhon You obviously didn't pay attention during history class.
Doctor Witten Rarely do I see a comment on youtube that is so spot on. The Muslims came to India by conquering, not by missionaries. In the process, completely eradicating the Jain religion through nefarious means. Jainism, was even more nonviolent then fucking Buddhism.
Unfortunately "was". But considering what's happening all over the world because of the two most dominant religions (Christianity and Islam), there's actually no hope for religions ever to be seen as something "good" anymore.
Even Jainism :/
I feel sorry for the guy who lost his wife and kids at 24:13

I don't know what awards Vice deserves for this type of coverage. But I'm here to say: All of them. No jokes. This is above and beyond journalism.
"Where are the French when you need em" said everyone in WWII
The french were one of the first germany took over, at least in ww2 or am i missing something. Its the americans that came in later. They came after Germany had taken over half europe instead of way earlier...
@@christianeffinger9978 so yeah, you're missing a hell of alot more than somthin 😂
I don't think you know how WW2 went buddy...
lmao they cried when the nazis ran em over
@@kingnro1 if you knew how it went you'd know that France has always been a "bit" of a bully against Germany. France lost from it in ww1 but Britain helped defeat Germany and that lead to the Germans being defeated. Then the French acted like they did it all on their own bullying The Germans until they went insane and you know the story from here. Listen I think it's horrible what Hitler did to the rest of the world but those arrogant French people deserved every single bit of it.

This was an excellent Vice documentary. Actually, this is the best Vice documentary I’ve ever seen.
Watching these Vice documentaries about Africa has really opened my eyes to how important infrastructure is. Almost every episode involves vehicles getting caught in the mud. We westerners take paved roads for granted but in most of the world they are uncommon or entirely absent. Imagine all the ways that impedes economic growth.
an thats the reason the Chinese are all over.
Mad Mike it’s so bad it’s faster to send goods to China than to neighboring African companies
They didn't have interstate highways that connect the entire continent.
Not all african countries are the same,my country as inter state roads,gated communities,state of the art hospitals, shopping malls and great government.

8:15 - What a man. What a man.

... Why is that even relevant?
Jesus Christ this was a hard watch. The UN, disappears. French troops, gone. Literally nothing while groups come through with guns. That poor guy getting hit in the back no doubt punctured a lung. Suffering hours, struggling to breath.
Charlie Bourgeois dude I was crying 😭
lol fucker - it thought there was a hair on my screen.
Hearing him trying to breathe broke my heart
What poor guy getting hit in the back? The Anti-Balaka man who abandoned the checkpoint at 25:00?
I hate to sound insensitive but he was fine. He was hit with the flat side of a machete as a form of corporal punishment. Six hits on his butt which was just a rough spanking, only one hit, the last one, to his upper back, he got up and was still fine.
Andy Jacobs they’re talking about the poor man shot in the back....
I feel like many of us middle/upper class Americans have lost a year of our life with this virus.
Children in CAR have basically lost 8 years of their lives with this war
or you know, way more years of there life

Bro, I'm watching this straight after the Liberian doc as well. What incredible, breathtaking journalism.

Vice News reports on the CAR while the major networks report on Justin Bieber
To keep the mindless general population (worker drones) dumb and distracted.
Oh how the times have changed
@@meenamoonam I was going to say the same thing
36:59 he knows that he is dying when he said those words " Can we please go? We are going to die otherwise" what a heart wrenching moment, wish they could of done something to save those 2 men. Human lives are so cheap in Africa yet so precious everywhere else in the world.
***** A Vice journalist I actually like...
***** My thoughts exactly. The insight, the depth of coverage, and not compromising the human connection to the conflict is what sets this kind of journalism apart from major networks. Every other network abstracts you from the conflict by talking about it from a distance but these guys are literally in the trenches...getting footage of bloodied streets, disorganization, and real suffering...like watching as 2 men come to realize that they are likely going to die...now i'm never going to forget what that looks like and i thank vice for that. No one should have live like this.
Lol said by an American in usa whi kills humans like bugs
@@upendo.3570 Dont be offended my friend, maybe my words were wrong but what I meant to say is in Africa someone can died so easily, one minute you are walking around and the next minute you get shot and lay there to die, and the sad thing is nobody could save you because of the war and shootings.
@@zero00tolerance ok. That the dark side of Human nobody can understand.so I'm sorry for any misunderstanding
I was a deputy managing director for a telco company in CAR. We had to work hard every day to keep the network alive so people could call each other. Most intense period of my life. I pray for our country to find peace
My heart aches for the people of CAR. The 2 men at the end of the video really captured the evil hell that is being experienced there. So heartbreaking to see that man cry over his brother. I shed tears myself for him.
I feel so guilty for not being to help. How can humanity turn its back on CAR? World leaders from G7 countries need to stand together and do something about this.
This is one of the few videos in my life that I can say properly shook me, and I don’t think I’ll ever be the same for it.
If someone knows a charity or NGO that is doing something helpful for the people of CAR, please reply with a link.

It's crazy how this is basically all we see from Africa. Poverty, civil war and a waste of natural resources.
Would you prefer we not see this? I am not sure what you are trying to say...as for the waste of natural resources, I think that mining for gold and other minerals in the C.A.R. is the last thing we need to worry about. These people are in trouble, and I think it's important that everyone is aware of this.
It is what it is, "Neutron".
Thats what your news keep showing you, go visit Africa yourself and your views will change, I find it odd that they always show the bad side of predominantly black country's without showing its beauty
***** Are you speaking from experience
Well, from Sub-Saharan Africa, anyway.
It’s 2019 and this conflict is still ongoing. Who would have thought this will continue into it’s 6th year. Very sad development.
Indeed. Its crazy.
Interested parties and those making money of the old divide and conquer tactics are to blame-the greed of a man or a group of men knows no boundaries- and all for wealth..thats the real tragedy, hundreds of thousands of people dead so a very select few can keep their stomachs well fed, love in luxury and send their kids to exclusive schools in England and in the United States.
What good is the Hague? What good is Nato? What good is Christianity and Islam in that country?
Their all in sore need of education, in sore need of compassion and in sore need of a real leader and international intervention , sadly that wont happen.
We’ve all walked away from the light , we live in perpetual darkness and need to get back to the light , Jesus is the light , at a basic level his teachings if read , understood and practiced by the common man in this country would make a drastic change- even if the person doesn’t believe in Jesus but practiced his teachings the country would be in an absolutely different state, and that goes for any nation on earth , any group on earth , any home on earth.
Nothing to do with the Old Testaments teachings, rather the New Testament.
but that’s wishful thinking , and open to ridicule by atheists, nevertheless , if they did understand and practices the teachings of Jesus now that this country is a predominantly Christian country(what a joke) , peace would begin to flower , but something would come to disrupt this , after all , its hard for a crooked person or corporation or government to make money if there is peace and quiet, it would make its citizens take notice of what’s happening in their abundantly naturally rich country.
There is a comment by an ex sniper on this comment section who talks about being on a peace keeping mission whilst looting their natural resources in Cameroon , it isn’t a conspiracy theory or anything of the sort but just the sad simple truth 😒😔🙁

Not always. That’s just saying everyone that comments here is an idiot or something.
Spoken word Truth
You can trust some media’s- to a point. It mostly goes down to the matter of you, if you keep an open mind for every side, the media can’t manipulate your thoughts. If you compare evidence and interviews, you can find some truths. No one is an expert without a mistake, but no one will ever be a true expert. We have to learn to know, and we have to judge and say even if we haven’t been there to witness something- because sometimes we have to raise a hand.
Thumbs up to the vice journalist and crew members for having the courage and bravery while under heavy gun fire and traumatic situation to document such events and show it to the world. While some of us are fortunate and take things for granted.

It’s a scary but yet sad sound. And sorry to hear about your relative but at least she passed with her loved ones and not alone.
i had that when i got stabbed its cuz his lung fills with blood and his breath getting shorter and shorter
fucks you up in the head until they ram a tube into your lung and let it empty out sadly he didnt make it
@@sixhunna66 Yo u got stabbed?!?!
@@phonemyatthu1364 yes lol
He has a pneumothorax due to a sucking chest wound. "Through and through" one lung from a 7.62x39. It's actually quite treatable and would have been stabilized in minutes if he'd been a soldier in a 1st world army. Highly survivable. Less so if you spend 6 hours laying in the bed of a Hilux hoping your pursuers don't come back and finish you off.
Keep the poor fighting, while the rich go away with all the money..
How true
Zion Taylor In order for the first world to have 800% Better Life Quality (Education,Money etc) 2/3 of the world must have 800% Lesser Life Quality, its simple math, all the blood shed will not end, Africa is still in its primordial form, a Dark Age if you will, Africa and the Middle East needs a r renaissance era so it can have a industrial revolution, the thing about the Dark Ages is that it can last a very long time.. and it already crippled Africa for the next 200-2000 years.
+Munteanu Sylver Robert I disagree, colonialism or imperialism isn't necessary for a country to be well off, for example, look at my hometown of Ireland, Ireland has never had an empire or annexed any other country but it has one of the highest standards of living in the world.
Chris Keane LOL? ever heard of United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland?
+Munteanu Sylver Robert That's simply at title. Ireland at the time was under British rule. That's like if it was some how called The United Kingdom and New Zealand, it wouldn't mean that New Zealand would be an imperial Empire, it's just a name.

Good documentation, the world needs to see this!
i am *so impressed* by the level of insightful commentary on this video
Somebody, _while this is going on,_ is shipping a constant supply stream of ammunition into the country. Think about that. Bullets don't grow on trees, and they're not reusable. Some outside source/s sending ammo.
to quote Quark from deep space nine "no one ever went broke selling weapons". if some group of people want to kill another they will get weapons from anywhere. and besides, thanks to the cold war being somewhat hotter in Africa the whole sub Saharan area is neck deep in ak47s and other tools of war.
And ain't no one just donating ammunition away for free. These people have a demand for weapons and guaranteed they'll always be able to find someone willing to sell. If guns were confiscated then they'd be using machetes to hack each other up. Weapons don't make people act violent. They've got massive internal civil struggles going on. It's so stupid to act like guns are somehow mind controlling these people into civil war.
@@smokedsalmon3907 What does the Central African Republic export, in order to make the money they need in order to import the trucks, gasoline, guns, ammunition? They don't _make_ any of it. They don't make much of anything else; they don't even grow enough food to feed themselves; Western charities ship in food, which the armies commandeer. So even though I never claimed anyone was shipping the ammo in for free, somebody probably is, because they can't afford it. Islamic countries probably ship ammo and guns to the Islamic factions, Communist countries probably ship them to any communist factions as they did in South Africa, and I wouldn't be surprised of the CIA ships them in if they can identify any factions that seem useful to U.S. or CIA interests. As for bullets mind controlling people... idk where you come up with that.
not just that, but EVERY commodity that is coming out and in, including all the slave labor. Do we realize that business as usual is going on perfectly when these "civil" (more like global) wars are killing countless people?

Incredibly moving, balanced, and hard hitting journalism. Well done.
Great documentary once again
8:14 my only wish is that the rest of the world could see things the way this man does, much respect.
How wisdom lives in such a devastation is one of the world's greatest gifts
best doc iv ever seen
VICE, Thanks for getting out and reporting on the stories the rest of the media seems to ignore. Stay safe out there.
So tragic. Thank you for showing this.
I've been through the same situation in togo 🇹🇬 west Africa almost five years ago and I'm grateful being alive today 🙏
This was so difficult to watch 💔
