South Sudan’s forgotten crisis

The civil war in South Sudan has already killed tens of thousands of people and displaced more than a million. Now, another 100,000 people have been forced to leave their homes as fighting between rebels and government forces resumes.

Aid agencies have been forced to evacuate their international staff.

The warring factions have so far failed to reach a peace deal to end the war which started in late 2013.

So what’s next? And is the world’s newest country being forgotten?
