South Sudan

Vietnam, despite being a newcomer, has appeared to be an active contributor to the United Nations Peacekeeping Operations in the past eight years.

Vietnam’s President Nguyen Xuan Phuc said the country is making efforts to contribute more to the UN Peacekeeping Missions.

South Sudanese women are expected to have a clearer view and are more concerned about their own health, especially vaginal health.

Three of four patients were diagnosed with chronic appendicitis, a very rare disease mentioned in the medical literature.

The deceased officer is among hundreds of Vietnamese servicemen who are performing the United Nations peacekeeping missions in the Central African Republic and South Sudan.

In seven years of taking part in the UN peacekeeping force, Vietnam has joined missions in the UN’s headquarters in New York, in South Sudan, and in Central Africa.

Vaccinations, coronavirus variants, and air transport for Covid-19 patients in South Sudan were among a number of topics discussed at an online training session.

The aid includes 1,000 medical protective clothes and 100,000 antibacterial face masks, which have been delivered to South Sudan by the Royal Australian Air Force.

The Vietnamese team will go to South Sudan on C-17 aircraft flown by the Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF).

The vaccination is aimed to store up the peacekeepers' confidence before departing for South Sudan.
