Overview
As of the 29th of June 2016, the total number of internally displaced persons (IDPs) in the UN Mission in South Sudan’s Protection of Civilians (PoC) site in Bentiu was 99,034. The second June 2016 population count was held in Bentiu PoC from the 27 - 29 June 2016. Compared to the previous count conducted in mid June, the population increased from 93,817 individuals to 99,034 individuals. The increase in IDP population may be attributed to the forthcoming general food distribution in the PoC and the decreased sense of security outside the PoC.
