Humans toll of violence in South Sudan continues to surge

Shafaqna English- The UN Commission on Human Rights in South Sudan warned that renewed violence, political tensions, shrinking civic space, entrenched corruption and persistent impunity continue to put the population and the planned transition to democracy at risk.

During the four-day visit, the Commission met a wide range of representatives from the Government, the political and security sectors, civil society and other stakeholders.

They called for the authorities to take urgent steps to protect civilians, allow humanitarian assistance to reach those in need and create conditions for inclusive political dialogue ahead of elections scheduled for December.
