KENYA-SSUDAN-ATHLETICS-REFUGEE-OLY-2016

(L-R) International Olympics Committee (IOC) 2016 olympics refugees team members Paulo Amotun Lokoro, James Nyang Chiengjiek, Yiech Pur Biel participate in physical conditioning routines following an evening workout at their high alttitude training camp, at the foot of the Ngong' hills, approximately 35km southeast of Nairobi, on July 25, 2016. The five from South Sudan who form the 10-member Team Refugee Olympic Athletics (ROA) selected by the International Olympic Committee in June, are hoping their participation at the Olympics would send a strong message to their native nation, South Sudan, after fresh political tensions erupted between the two warring factions led by President Salva Kirr and his former deputy Riek Machar, which left thousands dead and others displaced. / AFP / TONY KARUMBA (Photo credit should read TONY KARUMBA/AFP via Getty Images)
