On 8 July 2020, IOM’s Displacement Tracking Matrix conducted Event Tracking through direct field visits, and observations to collect information on locations of displacement, assistance needed, and households affected by armed attacks suspected to have been waged by armed Murle youth groups. The attacks were launched in Twic East, and Duk counties at Pakeer, Ajuong, and Duk Padiet payams respectively in which people lost lives and many sustained injuries. This led to displacement of up to 13,141 individuals (1,779 households) to Bor Town.
