The International Organization for Immigration, IOM has confirmed ground reports that tensions continue to increase in Kajo-Keji due to fighting in Yei.
Arrival of new soldiers in Kajo-Keji is also mounting local tensions over possible fighting and associated atrocities, IOM says.
Speculation on possibility of increased government offensive operations in Yei territory seems to be credible, IOM observes.
The agency fears increased offensive in the area will affect civil populations terribly.
IOM says increased displacement is expected in the wake of continuous fighting.
International networking among opposition fighters in the region is giving the movement an upper hand to establish bases, supply lines and safe havens, IOM observes.
The agency fears cross border fighting in the region could escalate the conflict and complicate passage of civilians fleeing for refuge.
