The U.S. has revoked all visas held by South Sudanese passport holders and halted future issuances, Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced Saturday.

The move comes amid worsening instability in South Sudan, which faces mass displacement and food crises. The Biden administration says visa restrictions will remain until full cooperation is ensured. South Sudan’s Foreign Ministry and the UN have not responded to requests for comment.
