Monday's attack comes exactly one week after another raid claimed 52 lives.

Gunmen suspected to be cattle rustlers raided two villages in Plateau state's Bassa district before shooting and hacking their victims. At least 51 bodies were recovered by rescue teams.

Dozens more were injured. A resident interviewed by Reuters said a mass burial was conducted for the victims.

Plateau - in Nigeria's centre - is one of the country's most ethnically diverse states. Inter-communal fights pitting mostly Christian farmers and predominantly Muslim herders are common.

Amnesty International said the gunmen also destroyed and looted homes. In a statement, the organization blamed 'inexcusable' security failures for Monday's attack.

South Sudan’s Foreign Ministry on Saturday denied social media reports claiming the U.S. ambassador had been expelled and that the country’s embassy in Washington was closed.

A statement from Foreign Ministry spokesperson Amb. Apuk Ayuel Mayen dismissed the claims as unfounded. “The Government of the Republic of South Sudan has neither expelled the United States ambassador nor closed its embassy in Washington, D.C.,” she said.

“These allegations did not originate from any official source within the government and are entirely without merit,” Mayen added.

She confirmed that U.S. Ambassador Michael J. Adler remains fully accredited and continues to have the South Sudanese government’s support.

Mayen said newly appointed Foreign Minister Monday Semaya K. Kumba met with Ambassador Adler earlier Saturday to discuss strengthening bilateral ties.

The spokesperson also reaffirmed that South Sudan’s embassy in Washington remains open and operational. “We appreciate the ongoing support of the U.S. government and remain committed to fostering strong and mutually beneficial diplomatic ties,” she said.

The denial comes amid heightened tensions between the two countries after South Sudan initially refused to accept a man deported by the U.S. last week, arguing he was a Congolese citizen using a South Sudanese passport.

After South Sudan later admitted the deportee, the U.S. maintained a visa freeze for South Sudanese nationals.

The move has drawn concern, as many South Sudanese passport holders had been granted temporary protected status in the U.S. due to the country’s unstable political situation.

Chaos Erupts At Paloch Airport After National Security Officers Clash Over Deployment Orders.

This morning, heavy fighting erupted at Paloch Airport in Northern Upper Nile State, igniting chaos among National Security forces.

The issue began when a group of 21 newly deployed troops refused to accept their assignment, demanding to return to Juba. Tensions escalated as they attempted to force their way onto a plane, leading to an exchange of gunfire.

Sources indicate that over 21 members of the National Security forces expressed their refusal to remain at their designated posts, insisting on returning home. When ordered to stay, the dissenting group allegedly cocked their weapons and opened fire on their fellow soldiers, resulting in three injuries.

In response to the uprising, authorities managed to repel the officers who defied their deployment orders. Some were arrested, while others fled the scene, further complicating the situation.

However, Efforts to contact the National Security Spokesperson for comments on the incident have been unsuccessful, leaving many questions unanswered as the situation develops.
