Atay Rose, South Sudanese refugee

We heard gunshot.
From there, we heard airplanes start shooting.

TEXT
Violence in South Sudan forced more than 125,000 people to flee the country since the start of the year.

Since April, more than 33,000 refugees have arrived in Adi, in northern Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), with little hope of being able to return home.

Atay Rose, South Sudanese refugee

The looting is still there.
Raping is still there.
Event killing – killing children, killing women – is still there.

TEXT
Living conditions are tough for the new arrivals.

MSF launched an emergency response to meet the growing needs of the community.

Two mobile clinics provide primary care and six community care centres have been established.

More than 3,000 consultations we carried out in less than two months following the launch of the intervention.

The number of weekly consultations continues to rise.

Germaine Alipa, MSF Nurse

These are refugees that came with nothing.
There are no mosquito nets, they have nothing.
It is difficult for MSF to care for all of these people.
Other NGOs also need to intervene.

TEXT
To reduce the risk of outbreaks, MSF is launching a vaccination campaign targeting more the 60,000 children in Adi, both refugees and locals,

Our team will also distribute 6,000 mosquito nets and other essential items.

But with more refugees arriving by the day, it cannot meet the growing needs alone.

Atay Rose, South Sudanese refugee

We don’t have food or access to education.
For some time, MSF has been providing medications for us.
But beyond this, there is no hospital here.
