According to UNHCR, at least 40,000 people have arrived into South Sudan since armed clashes between Sudan's military and rival paramilitary groups began in Khartoum and other parts of the country on 15 April 2023. Most of the refugees are part of the some 800,000 South Sudanese who had previously fled the war in South Sudan and who are now returning to a country with tensions still remaining in many areas, and more than two million internally displaced people. Upon arriving at the Joda border crossing, the refugees head to a transit area set up by UNHCR in the small town of Renk, where various UN agencies assist them with registration, food, health check and logistics.
