After years of devastating civil war and broken peace deals, South Sudan is at a crossroads again. While many displaced refugees are still afraid to return home, others see big reasons for hope.

Armed men raided a hotel in the capital city of Juba in 2016. A military court handed them prison sentences and ordered the government to pay rape victims a sum that their lawyer called "an insult."

The clashes between forces loyal to the country's president and vice president have reportedly killed more than 150 people and are raising concerns about a renewed civil war.

An Ethiopian official said "bandits" who crossed over the border from South Sudan were responsible, and said Ethiopian troops are pursuing the attackers.
