The ongoing conflict in Jur River has caused wide-spread displacement since March 2019 within the county, into neighboring Wau Town and reaching as far as Tambura in neighboring Western Equatoria. This report focuses on those displaced to Wau Protection of Civilians Area Adjacent to UNMISS site (PoC AA) and two collective centres, Masna and Cathedral based on a variety of DTM data sources.

There was a 30 per cent increase in the populations of Wau Town displacement sites between March and May 2019 with the population of some sites more than doubling (5 collective centres and Wau PoC AA DTM headcount) over the period.
