South Sudan braces for record Nile floods as El Niño raises water levels

South Sudan's Ministry of Water Resources warns that Lake Victoria and Nile basin water levels could hit historic highs by December, following a record drought. The forecast, tied to a 'Super El Niño,' raises the risk of devastating floods in a country already vulnerable to climate shocks. The warning is based on hydrological projections, with actual impact dependent on rainfall and upstream management.
