Thousands of people continue to flee uncertainty and fighting in South Sudan.
Over 272 people have died in South Sudan since renewed fighting broke out in Juba between forces loyal to President Salva Kiir and first Vice President Riek Machar last week.
British troops arrived in South Sudan last month to take part in the United Nations peacekeeping mission as it was earlier announced at a United Nations gathering held in September a year ago.

“I am appealing for your return while reiterating my 100 percent commitment to ensuring your protection and overall security …”
The Ugandan army has evacuated 38,000 civilians trapped by battles in South Sudan’s capital of Juba since July 15, a military spokesman says.
The statement said Kiir wanted to re-establish a peace agreement signed in August.
Thanking neighbouring countries and host communities that have afforded south Sudanese refuge, Rama pleaded with the regional governments in Ethiopia, Sudan, Uganda and Kenya to keep their borders open at this time as more people may want to opt out once travel restrictions ease up.

Machar’s spokesman, James Gatdet, rebuffed the threats, saying Gai’s faction had no official status in the moment.
The AU has already approved the deployment of the foreign forces from Ethiopia, Rwanda, Sudan, Uganda and Kenya. They said UNMISS’s mandate should be change to that of an intervention force.
