Abstract

Civilian family members' death report in this study is high. Large family size, widowed marital status, not displacing from home, having a disabled member of the family, and rural residences were the identified factors associated with civilian's death. In the context of the cessation of hostilities following the Pretoria Peace Agreement, sustained efforts from the government, humanitarian organizations, and the international community are essential .
