Humanitarian situation
• South Sudan is facing a severe humanitarian crisis, marked by events that are pushing the country towards new levels of vulnerability. Armed conflict, localised violence, climate shocks like floods, economic instability, and effects from the Sudan war continue to impact livelihoods, services, and social cohesion.
• The displacement crisis remains severe, driven by conflict and flooding, forcing hundreds of thousands to flee internally and across borders. Armed clashes between government and opposition forces in Upper Nile, Jonglei, and Central Equatoria states have displaced 326,000 people since March. The Upper Nile conflict has also displaced 205,000 people into neighbouring countries, including Sudan, Ethiopia, Uganda, among others.
• South Sudan is facing severe flooding, which could affect up to 1.6 million people. As of 30 November, floods had affected 1.35 million people in 39 counties and displaced 376,000 people, adding to the pre-existing displacement. As of 30 November, South Sudan was a host to 2 million internally Displaced Persons (IDPs).
• The Sudan conflict has forced 1.3 million people into South Sudan, mostly South Sudanese returnees but also 412,000 Sudanese refugees. As of 30 November, South Sudan hosted over 598,000 refugees, 95 percent of whom are Sudanese.
