Unhappy birthday: South Sudan turns three

World Update

Available for over a year

It's three years since South Sudan became an independent country. Many people hoped that independence would bring an end to years of conflict, but political infighting has led to a civil war that has killed tens of thousands and left one and half million people displaced. The country is also at risk of famine and is facing a cholera outbreak. Anne Soy reports. (Photo: People cross a makeshift bridge at a refugee camp in Juba. Credit: Nichole Sobecki/AFP/Getty Images)
