Africa-Press – South-Sudan. <\/strong><\/span>South Sudan\u2019s fragile Permanent Ceasefire is facing renewed strain, with monitoring teams documenting 407 alleged violations between August 2025 and January 2026, according to Maj. Gen. Teshome Anagawe Ayana, Chairperson of the Ceasefire and Transitional Security Arrangements Monitoring and Verification Mechanism (CTSAMVM).<\/p>\n

Speaking at the opening of the 53rd board meeting in Juba, Maj. Gen. Ayana warned that widespread fighting across several parts of the country is threatening hard-won peace gains.<\/p>\n

He stated that recent reports from local authorities, military commanders, and community representatives in Jonglei and Upper Nile indicate a sustained pattern of hostilities characterised by a struggle for presence and influence over territory.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe impact on civilians cannot be overstated, with killings, injuries, sexual violence, displacement, and severe movement restrictions caused by the ongoing hostilities. These dynamics underscore the importance of accelerating disengagement, cantonment, and unification processes. The protection of civilians remains a central concern.\u201d<\/p>\n

He added that reports of aerial bombardments in civilian areas, incidents involving humanitarian personnel in Nasir and Koat Payam, as well as cases of ambushes, abductions, looting, and market attacks, highlight the vulnerability of local security conditions.<\/p>\n

\u201cDisruptions along river transport corridors have contributed to economic strain and food insecurity, while the displacement of more than 8,000 individuals from Ayod and Nyirol Counties illustrates the humanitarian impact of localised instability.\u201d<\/p>\n

He emphasised that sexual and gender-based violence remains a grave concern, and the clear prohibition outlined in Article 2.1.10.3 of the Agreement calls for ongoing monitoring, prevention, and accountability by all signatory parties.<\/p>\n

\u201cHumanitarian access and freedom of movement are also of concern. Recent attacks on health centres and humanitarian workers are unacceptable and must be condemned. Informal restrictions continue to affect civilian mobility, and movement between areas under the control of different forces remains difficult.\u201d<\/p>\n

He noted that the peace process is under extreme pressure. \u201cThis assessment is shared not only by CTSAMVM but also by the wider international community, analysts, and regional stakeholders. The parties must step back from confrontation and recommit to dialogue. We are pleased to see the participation of the Revitalised Transitional Government of National Unity (RTGoNU) in recent diplomatic efforts.\u201d<\/p>\n

He encouraged all signatory parties and relevant mechanisms to reaffirm their commitment to the Permanent Ceasefire and to extend full institutional support to monitoring and verification processes.<\/p>\n
