Following the outbreak of violence in Juba on July 8, both warring parties have executed civilians and (gang-)raped women and girls during and after the fighting. No adequate healthcare facilities, services, treatment or staff to support SGBV survivors in need of medical and psycho-social support exist in South Sudan. The government has not committed adequate attention, or funding, to improve the availability or accessibility of such services. Services available are almost entirely provided by international and national NGOs.
