CLEAN : UN chief makes strong push for peace on S Sudan visit

The United Nations has announced a $21 million allocation from its Emergency Response Fund to aid South Sudan. However, this amount is insufficient, as the humanitarian response plan is only 3% funded. The UN hopes this will encourage further contributions. The UN reaffirms its commitment to the peace process, with meetings held with President Salva Kiir and Doctor Week Machar. The conflict in South Sudan has led to severe human rights violations, with over 2 million displaced and 200,000 seeking protection in UN camps.
