The International Organization for Migration or IOM in South Sudan is appealing for over one hundred million US dollars to provide humanitarian assistance and support transition, recovery and migration management initiatives.
In a statement IOM says humanitarian needs remain huge as conditions continue to deteriorate.
It says an estimated seven million people in South Sudan need relief aid, including 1.9 million internally displaced persons or IDPs.
Sustained levels of lifesaving assistance are crucial as conditions worsen each day, says William Barriga, Chief of Mission.
He says IOM appeal seeks to support approximately one million displaced people, host communities, returnees and migrants in South Sudan.
The commitment to reach the most vulnerable remains a priority, Barriga stresses.
