South Sudan Flooding Due to Heavy Rain

Thousands of families forced to flee their homes during the civil war in South Sudan have been returning to the town of Akobo in the wake of a new peace deal signed by the country’s leaders last year. The agreement, which included a ceasefire, has resulted in a significant reduction in political violence, giving families the confidence needed to head home and rebuild their lives.

But heavy rain, which has resulted in devastating floods across the Jonglei region, has proven to be another set-back for this already poverty-stricken community. Houses and land have been submerged in water, families have been displaced yet again, and access to basic services is extremely limited.

Humanitarians are providing emergency relief, including food, access to clean water, shelter and medicine to prevent the spread of waterborne diseases. That life-saving support is critical to easing the immediate crisis, but the damage caused by the flooding over the longer-term will ultimately increase the hardship and suffering of Akobo residents.

The United Nations Mission in South Sudan established a new peacekeeping base in Akobo in February 2018 to help protect civilians and facilitate the safe delivery of humanitarian aid. The base, the first to be located in opposition-held territory since the civil war erupted, also suffered severe damage from the floods.

Despite the challenges they face, the peacekeepers and the local community remain committed to working together to build reconciliation and peace.

Their hope is that the international community will respond to their suffering and commit fresh funding to the flood relief effort as well as maintaining political pressure on South Sudan’s leaders to deliver the durable peace they have promised for so long~UNMISS
