It was reported in the January 14th Dallas Morning News that rebels in South Sudan damaged local petroleum facilities after fighting which broke out on December 15th. The initial outbreak of violence began because of the dismissal of certain politicians from President Salva Kiir's cabinet in July. "Tens of thousands of South Sudanese [people] have been displaced in the conflict" says Addis Ababa, author of the article. Also, more than 1000 have been killed.

I hope this gets sorted out soon, because it's affecting so many people. I guess things like this have to happen in the beginning years of a new country, because people have different goals, and since the country is new, things can initially be unfair. Still, this doesn't excuse what the South Sudanese people are currently going through, and I hope other countries can do what they can to help and end this conflict.
ReplyDeleteIt's crazy how fast things can fall apart nowadays. People don't think of the consequences of their actions they just starts fighting which doesn't do any food in the end.
