UN: 9.4m people need relief aid, protection assistance in S. Sudan ...Sudan

August 17, 2023 (JUBA) – 9.4 million people or over two-thirds of the population in South Sudan need humanitarian and protection assistance, a United Nations report said. Humanitarians, according to the 2023 Aid Workers Security Report, require $1.7 billion to target 6.8 million of the most vulnerable people, yet only 43.8% of this has been funded. With 40 attacks on aid workers so far this year, South Sudan has recorded the highest number of attacks against aid workers with at least 22 said to have died and 36 injured. “Too many humanitarians, most of them South Sudanese nationals, have lost their lives while trying to alleviate the suffering around them,” explained Peter Van der Auweraert
