Over 835,000 people have been affected by the worst floods in decades in South Sudan. Nyatuak is one of them.
Nyataba and her family have been walking through the water for four days and have just reached comparative safety in Bentiu. The dykes protecting her village failed so they had to leave.
Across Unity state, people's homes and livelihoods (crops and cattle), as well as health facilities, schools, and markets, are completely submerged by floodwaters.
