Africa-Press – South-Sudan. <\/strong><\/span>The government of the United Kingdom has cautioned its citizens traveling to South Sudan to stay vigilant due to the security situation in the country.<\/p>\n

The travel advisory was issued July 29, 2022, against all travel to South Sudan but urges Britons who insist on visiting the country to be on guard.<\/p>\n

The advisory cited reports of inter-communal violence in some areas of the country, as well as reports of fighting between armed groups.<\/p>\n

The alert on the UK government website appealed to its citizens in the country to be in safe locations and avoid traveling at night.<\/p>\n

The UK is not the only European country to issue a travel advisory.<\/p>\n

Last week, the Canadian government also issued a similar warning to its citizens, urging them against \u201call travel to South Sudan, due to armed conflicts and inter-ethnic violence.<\/p>\n

According to media reports, the security situation has worsened in some states due to rampant inter-communal and cattle-related violence.<\/p>\n

However, political conflicts have long subsided until the recent deadly insurgencies in Unity State.<\/p>\n
