AU condemns deadly attack on UN peacekeepers in South Sudan

The African Union has strongly condemned the fatal attack on a joint patrol of the United Nations Mission in South Sudan (UNMISS) in Jonglei State, which left two Ethiopian peacekeepers dead and seven others injured.

The two Ethiopian peacekeepers were killed while serving in support of efforts to promote peace and stability in South Sudan, while seven others sustained injuries.

Despite the attack, Mr Youssouf reaffirmed the African Union's commitment to supporting the Government and people of South Sudan in their efforts to achieve a credible democratic transition and lasting peace.
