-

 



‎South Sudan army, (SSPDF,) has warned a group of heavily armed youth said to be coming from the Greater Pibor Administrative Area (GPAA) and heading toward Jonglei State to stop their advance or face serious military action.

‎

‎The Army said in a statement that its surveillance planes spotted large movements of armed youth over the past three days. 


Secret intelligence from inside sources also suggested the group might be planning attacks in southern and eastern parts of Jonglei.

‎

‎Speaking in the statement, army spokesman Maj. Gen. Lul Ruai Koang gave the youth only 24 hours to turn back or risk a full military response.

‎

‎“We are protecting the people and their properties,” he said. “If they refuse to go back peacefully, the army will take action to stop them.”

‎

‎Leaders Call for Peace, Not Violence

‎Local peace activists are urging leaders from both Jonglei and GPAA to calm the situation. “We cannot afford another fight,” said Reech Deng, a youth leader from Bor. “We want the government and community elders to talk quickly before things get out of hand.”

‎

‎Many communities in Jonglei and Pibor have suffered from past conflicts involving armed youth, cattle raiding, and revenge attacks. 


Locals are now calling on young people to stay away from violence and let elders lead peace talks.
