للمرة الثانية الخرطوم تقصف ولاية الوحدة بعد مؤتمر لسلفا يرفض فيه خيار

Quote: President Kiir said that his position is always the same and clear that the Republic of South Sudan under his leadership will not accept the option of war as a means of solving disputes. He said he believes in the viability of the two states economically and security wise, living side by side as sister countries in peace and prosperity and in the spirit of the CPA. He, however, asserted that any attempt by the government of the Sudan to destabilize the Republic of South Sudan will not be tolerated. ..Sudanese warplanes bombed a refugee camp in neighbouring South Sudan on Thursday, just hours after the south's president accused Khartoum of seeking a pretext for war, officials said.

Quote: "The refugees and civilians have been bombed in Yida" in Upper Nile state, said Taban Deng, governor of neighbouring Unity state, quoting reports from the commissioner of Pariang county where the attack took place. "They dropped about five to six bombs and it is an Antonov bomber," Deng added. The air strike came at around 3 pm (1200 GMT), just hours after a speech by South Sudan President Salva Kiir in which he condemned an earlier air strike in Upper Nile that killed seven civilians on Tuesday and accused Sudan of trying to drag the new country back to war. "There are reports that we are receiving on the ground in Yida that bombs have been dropped," said Lise Grande, UN humanitarian coordinator for South Sudan. "We are extremely concerned about the more than 20,000 refugees who have sought safety in Yida, fleeing the fighting in South Kordofan," Grande said. "We are trying to ascertain the facts and based on these, we will move as quickly as possible to provide all necessary humanitarian assistance."

Quote: Washington on Wednesday condemned what it called "provocative" bombing by the Sudanese armed forces near the border with South Sudan, and demanded a halt to such strikes. Such "indiscriminate aerial bombardment of civilian targets always is unacceptable and unjustified," State Department spokesman Mark Toner said.

Quote: Kiir denied the accusations on Thursday, telling reporters that they were "a prelude from Khartoum to justify their pending actions against South Sudan." The southern leader said Khartoum's accusations were "utterly baseless and they are just maliciously planned" by Sudanese President Omar al-Bashir to deflect from internal problems and mask his wish to reclaim the South. "Tomorrow, when Bashir invades South Sudan, then he will say yes, he took the action to revenge what was being done to him... They want to engage South Sudan in wars, meaningless wars," he said. Kiir dismissed Bashir's accusations that the South has been sending tanks and heavy artillery to rebels of the Sudan People's Liberation Movement - North (SPLM-N) who fought alongside his former southern rebels during their 1983-2005 civil war with Khartoum. Kiir said his government would do all it could to resist being drawn back into conflict but would not be trampled on.
