Israel and South Sudan are working out a deal for the return of some<br />1,500 refugees to their homes in the African republic, starting April<br />1. Refugees have returned voluntarily to South Sudan in the past.<br />This happened on a small scale and did not necessitate coordination<br />with South Sudan's government. As a result of the large number of<br />refugees now in question, and also due to the fact that most of the<br />South Sudanese citizens would not voluntarily return to their home<br />country, the current plan requires coordination between the two<br />countries.
