The report reveals that at least 60 percent of the country in now under the control of different rebel groups. Mr Annan's report especially draws its sources from another report by a recent mission to Liberia by the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS). The ECOWAS mission had concluded that "about 60 percent of the territory of Liberia was under rebel control." Due to this and the ongoing civil war, "the situation of refugees and internally displaced persons was deteriorating and the humanitarian agencies had no access to most of them." Other UN sources claim that by now, humanitarian agencies cannot access 70 percent of the country.

105. Briefing On Liberia In response, the local independent press launched a weeklong news blackout on governmentactivities, while the Press Union of liberia described the closure of http://www.cpj.org/Briefings/2000/Liberia_may00/Liberia_may00.html

New York, May 16, 2000 When Sierra Leonean rebel forces took 400 U.N. peacekeepers hostage on May 3, Liberian president and former warlord Charles Taylor became an unlikely peace broker. That same day, Liberian police violently dispersed members of the Liberian Press Union (PUL), who had gathered in front of their organization's Monrovia office to celebrate World Press Freedom Day Asked to explain his men's action, Deputy Police Director Sas Gbollie said he had been given "strict instructions by the Justice Ministry to stop all outdoor events in commemoration of World Press Freedom Day." He also quoted "intelligence reports" alleging that certain individuals had planned to use the festivities "to cause chaos in Monrovia." Invoking imminent popular unrest to justify the harassment of journalists is common practice in Liberia, a country that is still recovering from an eight-year, ethnically divisive civil war. Taylor often invokes the specter of "agents provocateurs" who allegedly use local independent media to create security problems in the country. His administration takes this as a warrant to conduct punitive raids against outspoken journalists and news outlets. On March 14, the independent Star Radio station broadcast an item about the U.S. State Department's human rights report on Liberia. The next day, without warning, police stormed Star Radio's Monrovia studios, interrupted its broadcast and Internet news service, and manhandled its staff. Meanwhile, police invaded and sealed off the compound of the Catholic Church-owned station Radio Veritas, which the government seems to have targeted to forestall accusations that they had singled out Star Radio. A statement from President Taylor's office cited "rising incidence of inflammatory comments and programs filling the airwaves" as grounds for the raid.
