Thousands of IDP’s in Kuda appealing for urgent humanitarian assistance

Eric Kanalstein

Thousands of IDP’s in Kuda, a village 54 kilometers west of Juba, are appealing for urgent humanitarian assistance -

They fled their homes two weeks ago following clashes between government forces and unknown assailants. The villagers said they have no food, water, shelter or medicine in the bush where they have sought a safe environment. The UNMISS Civil Affairs Division, the lead on the assessment visit, will now engage the humanitarian community as a much needed step forward in providing the required support.
