He said the community members are free to choose to join the armed movements or the RSF.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;In Kas, Shattaya, and the areas of Jebel Marra, 64 tribes have agreed to peaceful coexistence and work towards resolving their specific issues through agreed-upon means,&#8221; he clarified.<\/p>\n<p>On his part, a teacher in the Kas area, Anwar Ahmed, denied the validity of the information circulating on social media platforms, indicating that not everything on those platforms is necessarily true.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt must be understood by everyone that what is written is not necessarily true,\u201d he highlighted. \u201cAll that happened is that we had a specific session with the Kas locality administration aimed at clarifying some regional issues.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/south-sudan\">South-Sudan<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; South-Sudan.
