An attack by unidentified men in South Sudan's Ruweng Administrative Area killed 169 people, including 90 civilians and 79 soldiers, with the death toll potentially rising as some remain missing. The violence underscores UN concerns about instability since the 2025 arrest of former first vice president Riek Machar and threatens the fragile 2018 peace agreement between President Salva Kiir and Machar.
