Sudan clashes uproot over 800K people into South Sudan: minister

Juba, Aug 14 (UNI) The ongoing conflict in Sudan between the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) and the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) has forced more than 800,000 people to flee into neighboring South Sudan since April 2023, a South Sudanese official said Wednesday.
Albino Akol Atak, minister for humanitarian affairs and disaster management, said the escalation in fighting has exacerbated the already dire humanitarian situation compounded by climate change-induced impacts such as delayed rains and flooding.
"This year in South Sudan we have had a lot of crises that have made our people vulnerable, one of them is climate change's impact on our people that is causing floods and drought, and the other is the conflict in Sudan that has forced more than 800,000 people to flee to South Sudan. All these people are coming lacking everything including food," Akol said during a handover ceremony of relief food to the United Nations World Food Program (WFP) in Juba, the capital of South Sudan.
