Any refugees who may have returned to Ethiopia and joined the conflict are no longer considered refugees. We continue to support the government of Sudan in their responsibility to uphold the civilian and humanitarian character of asylum. 2/2

UNHCR is aware of reports that some Ethiopian refugees in Sudan have returned to Ethiopia & are allegedly involved in the conflict. We have seen a modest⬇️ in refugee numbers in the camps but are unable to verify whereabouts of those who left, including possible returns. 1/2

In Kenya, refugees and their host communities work together to make UNHCR x UNIQLO bracelets at the MADE51 centre in the Kalobeyei settlement. This helps them feel included, learn new skills, earn an income and give back to society. #WithRefugees https://t.co/1ws57UAeuK

After years displaced from her home in South Sudan, Regina has finally returned. Nearly 300,000 refugees just like Regina have decided to go back home, but they need more support to live in safety and dignity. https://t.co/HVVCr0uQYP

Stella, a South Sudanese refugee joins other women in making bracelets at the MADE51 centre in Kalobeyei settlement in Kenya's Kakuma refugee camp. The income these women earn helps them meet basic needs and support their children’s education. https://t.co/XDKiZULRBX
