Reports of rape by soldiers have been widespread
WOMEN IN Zimbabwe have launched a protest in response to reports of violent sexual acts committed by soldiers.
The protesters wore black clothes as part of the Black Wednesday day of action yesterday (January 30).
The women called on the Zimbabwean president, Emmerson Mnangagwa, and authorities to act to address the violence against women.
Using social media to amplify their voices, campaigners used hashtags such as #OurBodiesNotWarZones, #BlackWednesday and #SheSpeaksOut. Men have also been participating in the action.
