(CNN) -- An influx of people returning home to vote in Southern Sudan is straining communities suffering from lack of food and water in the remote region, aid groups said Wednesday.
Hundreds of thousands have returned to the region since a 2005 peace agreement that ended a civil war between Sudan's north and south.
In the past three months, about 106,000 have returned from the north, the International Rescue Committee said in a statement.
The returnees are coming to a region already facing dire shortages of food, water, health care and sanitation, the International Rescue Committee said. CNN
