In plain language

A forest fire was confirmed in South Sudan starting on October 23, 2026. It is rated as a severity level two, which means it is a smaller fire that local experts are watching closely.

What is a wildfire? A wildfire is an unplanned fire that burns through natural areas like forests or grasslands. It often starts from heat sources like lightning or human activity. These fires spread quickly when the ground is dry, the weather is hot, and there are plenty of dry leaves and branches to act as fuel.

If you are near a fire, stay inside and keep windows closed to protect yourself from breathing in smoke or ash.
