Storyline

United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon arrived in Juba today for a one-day visit to South Sudan.

The top UN official was met at Juba International Airport by his Special Representative to the country, Hilde F. Johnson and South Sudanese Cabinet Affairs Minister Martin Elia Lomuro. Also present were UN peacekeeping chief Herve Ladsous, as well as other key government and UN officials.

He visited the protection site at the UNMISS base in Tomping, Juba, where he met with community leaders representing the thousands of civilians seeking shelter there.

Since the beginning of the current crisis, the Secretary-General has repeatedly called on the leaders to find a political solution and to put an immediate end to the violence which has led to the suffering of so many innocent civilians.
