South Sudan: Conflict in Equatoria

The International Crisis Group (ICG) published on 25 May 2016 an analysis titled "South Sudan's South: Conflict in the Equatorias." It reports on continuing conflict in Equatoria region driven by a combination of national governance issues--federalism, security sector reform, and a new constitution--and localized grievances. Although conflict is on the wane in Equatoria, the new South Sudan peace agreement could revive contentious issues in Equatoria.
