Since May, the United Nations estimates that 700,000 people have been displaced by flooding across the country.

Jonglei, Unity, Northern Bahr el Ghazal, and Upper Nile are the worst-affected states. Flooding has claimed the lives of more than 30 people and destroyed thousands of homes.

Moreover, flood victims are complaining about a lack of food since their goods have been wrecked or washed away by the water.
