Is South Sudans peace agreement under threat?
A peace deal in 2018 ended the civil war in South Sudan \u2013 the world\u2019s newest nation. \n \nHundreds of thousands of people were killed in the war after fighting broke out in 2013 between the government forces of President Salva Kiir and those loyal to his vice president and rival, Riek Machar. So, as part of the peace deal signed to end the fighting, all these forces were to be united in one national army and police force. \n \nBut this has become a sticking point \u2013 and over the past few weeks violence between the troops has flared again. And at the weekend, government forces surrounded the residence of Riek Machar in the capital Juba.\n \nSo is there any hope of peace under the two rivals? And is this latest outbreak of violence a threat to the peace process?\n \nPresenter: Victoria Uwonkunda (@MsUwonkunda)\nReporting: Nichola Mandil (@nichdimandil)
