South Sudan faces an arms embargo by the United Nations Security Council after President Salva Kiir’s government appeared to be reneging on an agreement to deploy a 4,000-strong protection force in Juba.
The Council had threatened an arms embargo if Juba did not co-operate on the protection force by the September 15 deadline.
