Unprecedented flooding in South Sudan has affected almost 800,000 people. High water levels have left thousands of people stranded in areas that are inaccessible to aid workers. Before the flooding began, the humanitarian crisis in South Sudan was described as “catastrophic,” with around 7 million people in need of humanitarian assistance. The United Nations believes that the consequences of the flooding will “further exacerbate their situation, undermining resilience, coping mechanisms and access to life-saving services.” Over one million children are acutely malnourished many families cannot afford to eat even one meal a day.
Pray that medical assistance will reach those in need.
Pray that the international community will take action to thwart the worsening humanitarian catastrophe in South Sudan.
