United Nations, May 30 (IANS) The UN ****** for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) says the aid groups have reported that
Nearly 85,000 people have fled the violence in
South Sudan to Sudan since mid-December 2013, a UN spokesperson said here Thursday. "More than one third of them are at the Kilo 10 (reception ) site in Sudan's White Nile State, many with limited access to clean water and sanitation," Xinhua quoted Stephane Dujarric as saying during a daily briefing here. "They are working with the Government of Sudan to help relocate the
South Sudanese to safer areas." "Humanitarian organisations continue to provide assistance to the
South Sudanese arrivals in Sudan," he said. The humanitarian appeal to help the
South Sudanese in Sudan is just 36 percent funded." The fighting in
South Sudan broke out last December when clashes erupted between soldiers loyal to Kiir and others loyal to Machar.
