| Comments: | The conflict in South Sudan that started on 15th December 2013, has caused fatalities and displacement among the civilian population. People have been wounded and many have fled their homes, of which some has crossed the borders to neighboring countries, including fleeing to Sudan. Until now, despite a peace agreement, insecurity remains in South Sudan, causing continued displacement and uncertainty for people, influencing their decisions not to return home yet. This translates into an increase in the humanitarian assistance demand. Latest figures suggests that more than 700,000 internally displaced and almost 150,000 persons that have fled into neighboring countries. Sudan has up to date received more than 20,000 persons, of which most are received in White Nile State. |
