South Sudan's food crisis 'worst in the world' - UN
It is early morning in Reke village, a settlement of about 3,000 people displaced by fighting between government and rebel forces in the oil-rich Unity state.
There were heavy rains overnight and the village, about 650km (400 miles) north-west of the capital Juba, is only accessible with a four-wheel-drive vehicle.
Some children are playing in an open area. In one corner, a group of women are building a makeshift hut, known as Tukul, with sticks and reeds collected from a nearby river.
Elsewhere in the village, an elderly woman is seated outside a smoky Tukul. She smiles brightly as we approach her, and removes a pipe, lights it and blows out a huge puff of smoke, as her neighbours cheer her on.more photos below

R&B star Akon has been accused of going to extreme lengths to avoid catching Ebola during a concert in Africa … by crowd-surfing inside a giant plastic bubble. The ‘Locked Up’ singer climbed inside the airtight blow-up during a performance in Goma, in the Democratic Republic of Congo, on Sunday and rolled over the crowd, pushed along by the outstretched hands of 60,000 screaming concert-goers.
But his actions prompted breathless reports from certain media outlets that, rather than just being a creative way of performing closer to his fans, it was a cynical attempt to shield himself from the deadly virus that is sweeping West Africa. More photos below
