The ongoing conflict in South Sudan and the resulting food insecurity is forcing people to flee for Sudan, the UN refugee agency said on Tuesday. South Sudan’s crisis continues despite an ongoing peace agreement between the warring factions.
This instability has resulted in some 38,000 people leaving for parts of Sudan since the end of January, and UN officials believe the situation could worsen.
