Not one government has paid into fund for victims of Uganda warlord, says ICC

Despite the significant ruling against Dominic Ongwen, no countries have contributed to the reparations fund, leaving survivors of his crimes without necessary support.

Survivors have waited over 20 years for justice, facing the risk of having to endure a decade more before any reparations might be seen.

The ICC Trust Fund for Victims emphasizes that states created the ICC with the intent of providing justice for victims, highlighting the court's risk of losing legitimacy.

Many survivors continue to battle mental and physical injuries resulting from Ongwen's crimes, facing compounding issues of aging, poverty, and trauma which affect their ability to seek help.
