Content_paragraphs:  I commend the parties for continuing to adhere to the ceasefire, but I remain 
  
  concerned about South Sudan People’s Defence Forces and SPLM/A-IO operations 
  
  against the South Sudan Opposition Movements Alliance and vice versa and the 
  
  prevailing insecurity that perpetuates dire consequences for the civilian population, 
  
  including displacement, human rights violations and conflict-related sexual violence. 
  
  I am encouraged by the process in Rome led by the Community of Sant’Egidio, in 
  
  concert with the Intergovernmental Authority on Development, and efforts towards 
  
  integrating the South Sudan Opposition Movements Alliance into Ceasefire and 
  
  Transitional Security Arrangements Monitoring and Verification Mechanism structures  
  
  as from 1 January 2021.
