[...] "Please know that we feel your fear and we hear your suffering, we know how much you have suffered. It is true that we are not able to go to see your homes, many of which have been destroyed, but we believe you," Ambassador Samantha Power, co-lead of the #UNSC delegation visiting South Sudan.

The UN Security Council delegation travelled to Wau in South Sudan’s Western Bahr el Ghazal region on Sunday, to meet with internally displaced people and to see for themselves the prevailing humanitarian and security conditions.

Ambassador Samantha Power made this statement after the tour of the PoC site located adjacent to the UNMISS base in Wau.
