Citizens flee fighting around Yambio town

YAMBIO (4 Jan.)

Hundreds of citizens have fled their homes and are currently taking refuge
in schools in Yambio town in South Sudan’s Gbudue State after clashes
between government troops and opposition fighters in villages near the town
on Tuesday, a local official said.
Speaking to Radio Tamazuj, Jackson Ezekiel, Minister of Local Government,
said that a large number of local residents fled to Yambio town due to
fighting in neighbourhoods around Yambio town.

He pointed out that they accommodated the conflict-displaced families in
schools and that humanitarian organizations in the area started to register
them.

Radio Tamazuj couldn’t reach rebel officials in the area to comment on the
matter.
