The United States is deeply concerned by the on-going violence in Jonglei State, and by mounting reports of abuse of civilians, including killings, beatings, and looting and destruction of homes and humanitarian facilities in Jonglei State. We are also concerned about specific, recent reports of a mobilization of armed youth and reported clashes in Pibor county. We urge all parties – including the Sudan People’s Liberation Army (SPLA) and other state and non-state armed actors – to end the violence, and to work toward peace and reconciliation through dialogue.
