Sudan, US

Departure of
Non-Essential
Personnel, ICP
on Malong
By Matthew

UNITED
NATIONS, July
10 -- In the
UN's continued
withholding of
news and
answers about
South Sudan,
the reports of
the UN's own
knowledge of
abuses are now
being withheld
from its own
impacted
national
staff.
Leaked to
Inner City
Press: two
fatalities in
UN "Protection
of Civilians"
camp 3, seven
Chinese
peacekeeper
injured, three
to four
critically.
And the role
of Paul
Malong, see
below.
After more
than three
hours of
meeting, the
UN Security
Council
members
emerged. US
Samantha Power
spoke briefly,
about getting
more troops
from regional
countries.
Soon afer, the
State
Department
issue this:
In
response to
ongoing
violence in
South Sudan,
the Department
of State
ordered today
the departure
of
non-emergency
personnel from
the U.S.
Embassy in
Juba.
U.S. citizens
in South Sudan
are advised to
take
precautions to
enhance their
personal
security and
should check
U.S. Embassy
Juba’s website for
the latest
consular
information,
including
security
messages and
the latest
Travel
Warning.
The Embassy’s
ability to
provide
emergency
services to
U.S. citizens
in Juba is
extremely
limited.
