Humanitarian Crisis in South Sudan: International Committee of Red Cross
10:00 am
Mr. Franz Rauchenstein:
There is ongoing violence. The peace agreement led to a pacification of the situation for three or four weeks and observers were very hopeful. In recent days, hostilities have increased again, especially in Unity State but now also in Equatoria. It is now a very sensitive moment and if those hostilities cannot be contained a widening of hostilities can be expected.
