General Santino Deng Wol, the Chief of Defense Forces for South Sudan, has issued a formal directive to military personnel in Jonglei State to cease all offensive operations against SPLA-IO forces. During his visit to Ayod County, he emphasized that the national peace agreement remains in effect and that soldiers should only engage in combat if they are acting in self-defense. The General underscored that military confrontation is not a viable path to stability and urged his troops to prioritize diplomatic dialogue. Furthermore, he outlined new protocols for the second phase of unified forces training. Soldiers who are not selected for this next stage of integration are required to surrender their weapons and transition back to civilian life. Those who refuse to disarm will be officially classified as criminals, as the government seeks to consolidate its security forces under the existing peace framework.
This directive is a critical step in maintaining the fragile peace process in South Sudan and preventing renewed hostilities between government and opposition forces.
