Highlights
▪ Since February 2025, 190,000 South Sudanese have sought refuge in countries neighboring South Sudan, including an estimated 45,000 in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), 39,000 in Ethiopia, 75,000 in Sudan, and 30,000 in Uganda. This number adds to 2.4 million refugees displaced before 2025. Over 132,000 Sudanese refugees returned to Sudan from South Sudan in recent months.
▪ Limited humanitarian access poses significant challenges to the timely and effective delivery of life-saving assistance to the most vulnerable communities in South Sudan and the neighboring countries. The limitations are caused by conflict-related insecurity, extreme weather conditions and remoteness of locations hosting the displaced.
▪ South Sudan has experienced severe and widespread flooding, with conditions worsening across multiple states. As of 31 October, flooding had affected an estimated 1,024,500 people in 29 counties across six states, with Jonglei and Unity states accounting for nearly 87 per cent of those impacted.
