Relocation of Nuba refugees to Pamir camp continues

Relocation of Sudanese refugees from Yida camp to a new site in Pamir area
in South Sudan’s Ruweng State is ongoing, amid dire condition among women
and children, several refugees said.

A refugee living in Pamir camp told Radio Tamazuj yesterday that the UN
refugee agency is still transporting Nuba refugees from Yida camp to Pamir
area, saying nearly 600 refugees are being relocated to the new camp
everyday.

He added that the number of the Sudanese refugees who have already arrived
in the new camp could reach 3,000 people.

The refugee complained about water shortages and other basic services in
the new camp.Meanwhile, several refugees at Yida camp said that the United
Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) said that it would not
provide aid assistance to the Nuba refugees unless they move to Pamir
refugee camp.

For its part, the International Network of the Nuba Mountains Civil Society
Organizations has called on the UNHCR to stop the relocation for the sake
of the refugee’s welfare.

Amar Nasir, Secretary General of the Network, told Radio Tamazuj that the
Nuba refugees want to settle in Yida camp because they were given farmlands
there, saying the new camp is very far from South Kordofan State.Nasir
called on South Sudan government to care for the Sudanese refugees in its
territory.
