BENTIU, South Sudan – An official says that for the second day there were no reported attacks by Sudan on South Sudan, following a week or military incursions by both sides and aerial bombardments by Sudanese warplanes.
South Sudan government spokesman Barnaba Marial Benjamin said Thursday that Sudan is feeling the international pressure and condemnation of its attacks on the South.
The African Union told Sudan in a communique Tuesday to stop aerial bombardment of the south — that according to the U.N. killed 16 civilians — and said both countries should cease hostilities.
The U.S. and United Nations have condemned the attacks which started after South Sudan said it was withdrawing its invading troops from a disputed oil-rich region the two countries claim.
