This is a press statement from the Ministry of Finance and Planning in the Republic of South Sudan concerning an incident involving a group of people referred to as "wounded heroes" who forcefully entered the ministry's premises to demand payment for their medical benefits. The ministry clarified that it does not have a dedicated budget supported by foreign donors for such medical claims. Instead, the government supports the medical benefits of veterans, which are managed outside the budgetary allocations of the Ministry of Defence and Veterans Affairs. The statement reports that two payments have been disbursed to the Ministry of Defence and Veterans Affairs for addressing the needs of wounded veterans.

The Office of the President of South Sudan has issued a statement expressing shock and dismay about Peter Biar Ajak's use of the unpublished manuscript "A Bloody Nile" to launch a barrage of insults against President Salva Kiir on social media. The author of the manuscript, Tim Edwards, mixed baseless rumors together to tarnish the president's image. The statement rejects Biar's claim that the Office of the President bought the copyright to suppress its publication. Biar apologized for his errors in a public note, and the statement urges people to regard his latest rants against the President as repeated errors.
