Yabus River
River in South Sudan, Ethiopia
9°52′N 33°35′E / 9.867°N 33.583°E / 9.867; 33.583 The Yabus River (or Khor Yabus) rises in the far west of Ethiopia, in Asosa Zone, flows west into Sudan past the town of Yabus, then enters South Sudan.[1] At the town of Bunj it turns south west and enters the Machar Marshes,[2] where it loses its identity.
The river is sometimes confused with the Dabus River, a tributary of the Blue Nile, also known as the Yabus River. The sources of the two rivers are close to each other.
