    Violence escalates in South Sudan as a government commissioner is killed

    A government-appointed county commissioner in South Sudan’s Jonglei State was killed by opposition forces, escalating violence in Akobo County. The conflict involves competing claims over the county commissioner role and undermines the 2018 peace agreement. Both sides report casualties, with the opposition briefly seizing an area before government reinforcements arrived.
