Africa-Press – South-Sudan. <\/strong><\/span>The Reconstituted Joint Monitoring and Evaluation Commission (RJMEC) is crying out to the government to address continued attacks on humanitarian agencies and aid workers in the country.<\/p>\n

The peace monitoring body wants the government to exert more effort to ensure the working environment for humanitarian agencies is improved.<\/p>\n

RJMEC added that humanitarian agencies should be allowed to operate freely to help those in need without any fear of a possible attack.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe dire humanitarian situation in the country is being worsened by attacks on humanitarian workers and assets; and looting of their supplies,\u201d the report read in part.<\/p>\n

Charles Tai Gituai, RJMEC interim chairman, expressed the need for parties to the peace agreement to commit themselves and respect humanitarian agencies by enforcing strong punishment on those who attack humanitarian agencies.<\/p>\n

He called on the government to enact strong legislation to protect economic reforms in the country.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere is a need for related critical legislation to be enacted to support this process of economic reform,\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n

The report noted that the humanitarian situation has continued to worsen due to attacks on roads and the economic crisis.<\/p>\n

Since the beginning of the year, there have been close to 20 attacks on humanitarian aid workers, according to the World Food Program country director in South Sudan, Mary Ellan.<\/p>\n

She said the attacks could result in a large-scale loss of lives and property if they are not stopped.<\/p>\n

The attacks impede humanitarian work and threaten the lives of thousands of South Sudanese who rely on humanitarian assistance. It is estimated that at least 8.9 million people need humanitarian support this year.<\/p>\n
