A significant drop was noted in the weekly influx rate of internally displaced persons (IDPs) at the UN Mission in South Sudan’s protection of civilians (PoC) site in Bentiu, the capital of Unity State. Only 508 individuals arrived at the PoC between 3 to 9 October 2015, a drastic 57 per cent decline from the 1,184 new arrivals that had come to the PoC in the week before, taking the overall population of the PoC to 119,038 individuals or 31,266 households.
