The Nuer community are seen as supporters of rebel leader Riek Machar.
President Salva Kiir is a member of the country's largest group, the Dinka.
Although both men have prominent supporters from various communities, there have been numerous reports of rebels killing ethnic Dinkas and the army targeting Nuers since the conflict broke out in December 2013.
Since then, more than a million people have fled their homes in what was already among the world's poorest nations.

Analysis

In a civil war marked by numerous human rights abuses, the reports from Bentiu are among the most shocking.
The rebels are accused of killing Dinkas (President Kiir's ethnic group), Sudanese (because of the alleged support of Darfuri rebel groups for President Kiir) and Nuers who were not overtly cheering their fellow Nuer rebels.
The victims hid in hospitals and places of worship, but did not find sanctuary there.
Many of the rebels say they took up arms because of the murder of their relatives in Juba at the beginning of this conflict.
Both sides have committed terrible abuses.
However the scale of the killings carried out by rebel troops, including the feared White Army militia, in Bentiu, Bor and Malakal, has turned many people against the rebel leader, Riek Machar.
With the rainy season approaching, and negotiations set to resume in Addis Ababa, there is likely to be more fighting - and very likely more atrocities - in the next few weeks.

South Sudan analyst James Copnall says that in a civil war marked by numerous human rights abuses, the reports from Bentiu are among the most shocking.

Non-Nuer South Sudanese and foreign nationals were singled out and killed, the UN Mission in South Sudan (Unmiss) said.
Some 200 civilians were reportedly killed at the Kali-Ballee mosque where they had sought shelter.
At the hospital, Nuer men, women and children, who hid rather than cheer the rebel forces as they entered the town, were also killed, it said.
The UN's top humanitarian official in South Sudan, Toby Lanzer, was in Bentiu on Sunday and Monday.
He told the BBC's Focus on Africa programme that the scenes in Bentiu were "perhaps [the] most shocking set of circumstances" he had ever faced.
He said he saw "piles of [the bodies of] people who had been slaughtered" last week, adding that they all appeared to be civilians.
