Attachments

South Sudan is currently facing a complex humanitarian crisis characterized by extensive internal displacements. The underlying causes of these displacement dynamics are varied and include communal clashes, land disputes, insecurity, violence, natural disasters, and cross-border movements.

Between November 1st and 15th, 2024, Panyijar County recorded the displacement of 3,782 individuals. Information gathered from key informants indicates that these displacements were predominantly instigated by food insecurity. As a result of these incidents, there has been a significant increase in urgent humanitarian needs among the affected populations. The displaced individuals have identified food, sanitation facilities, and health services as their three most pressing requirements, necessitating immediate humanitarian assistance.

The situation in South Sudan remains critical as ongoing conflicts continue to exacerbate the humanitarian crisis. Immediate intervention is essential to address the urgent needs of those affected by displacement.
