The United Nations Mission in South Sudan (UNMISS) is increasing patrols around a displacement camp near its peacekeeping base due to rising tensions and escalating clashes between forces aligned with the two main political parties. Thousands of displaced people are facing fresh security threats as violence spreads across the country, particularly in the capital. The security situation stabilized after the 2018 Revitalized Peace Agreement, but the country now appears to be on the verge of renewed conflict. UNMISS police are engaging with the communities, actively patrolling, and offering support to help residents feel safer. Despite past efforts to transition displacement sites into government-controlled camps, the threat of war in South Sudan has resurfaced.
Pray for strength, courage, and wisdom for the peacekeepers working in South Sudan as they provide security and reassurance to the displaced. Pray for peace and stability in the country. (the Holy Bible, 2 Chronicles 7:14).
Pray for divine protection upon all the displaced people in South Sudan. Pray for the Holy Spirit of GOD to remove anxiety and fear and to bless them with divine peace and safety. (The Holy Bible, Psalm 23:1-2).
