More than 100 lone children cross into Uganda each day as they flee conflict in South Sudan, walking for days on end with no food or family to sustain them, an aid agency said on Thursday.
World Vision said at least 9,000 children had made the journey since last July and it expects another thousand to join them by mid year.
