Nice work on your draft. A few things going forward
- Section headers use sentence capitalization, not title capitalization; only the first word of the title, and proper nouns, should be capitalized.
- While government and UN sources are good, they shouldn't be the only sources you use. You should be looking for scholarly sources, recent peer-reviewed sources. If you're having a hard time finding them, you should contact your librarian.
- The lead section should summarize all the key points in the article, and shouldn't include any information that isn't present in the body of the article. Right now it's too short. And you shouldn't be predicting the future (roper response and treatment by the government and its citizens will be the defining factor...) though, of course, if someone expresses that opinion, you can report it (and say whose opinion it is).
