However, the general situation in the area during the visit of humanitarian partners remained a bit tense. People remain in fear as another attack could occur in unknown time. During the attack, over 7000 herds of cattle were raided and living about 34 persons killed (including those who later died in the Hospitals of Juba and Bor), several other people wounded and children taken away. It was further reported that the attackers burned down about 203 houses (belonging to 78 HHs).
