Botswana leaves Bushmen in desert without water

The Botswana government this week left Gana and Gwi Bushmen families in the Central Kalahari Game Reserve to cope without water in the desert. The government cut off water supplies to the remaining Bushmen communities in its latest attempt to force them off their ancestral lands. Many of the 700 Bushmen still living in the reserve at the start of this month have now been forced to leave.
