Palotaka (sometimes spelled Palataka[1]) as is a community in Magwi County of Eastern Equatoria state in South Sudan.

During the Second Sudanese Civil War (1983-2005) it was in turn a base for the Sudan People's Liberation Army and the Sudan Armed Forces, and was almost abandoned.

[3] In March 1993 Moli Tokoro and Borongoli camps were evacuated for Natinga after the National Islamic Front had made advances in the south.

The route led through Palotaka, where about 800 of the unaccompanied minors decided to settle.
