JUBA, FEBRUARY 10, 2015(CISA) – United Nations humanitarian chief Valerie Amos has warned that continued conflict in South Sudan risks depriving the country of a generation of “lost” children. “People need peace, stability and security. It is heartrending to see the suffering of the people,” Amos said in a plea to those engaged in the conflict during a press statement. The security situation in South Sudan has steadily deteriorated since political in-fighting between President Kiir and his former Vice-President, Riek Machar, started in mid-December 2013. The hostilities subsequently turned into a full-fledged conflict that has sent nearly 100,000 civilians fleeing to UN bases around the country.
