South Sudan 'to withdraw troops' from Heglig oil field
20 April 2012 Last updated at 15:14
Souuth Sudan's President Salva Kiir has ordered the withdrawal of his troops from the Heglig oil field across the border in Sudan.
South Sudanese forces captured the oil field last week, accusing Khartoum of using it as a base to launch attacks.
UN chief Ban Ki-moon has described the occupation as illegal and also called on Sudan to stop bombing the South.
Khartoum claimed later on Friday that Sudanese forces had retaken the main town in Heglig after "a fierce battle".
"Sudan's armed forces... entered Heglig today at 14:20 (11:20 GMT)," Sudanese Defence Minister Abdelrahim Mohammed Hussein announced on state TV.
South Sudan has so far made no public comments on Khartoum's claim.
The escalating fighting and rhetoric between the two sides over the past week has led to fears of all-out war.
South Sudan seceded last July following a 2005 peace deal that ended a brutal two-decade civil war in which more than 1.5 million people died.
On Thursday, South Sudan issued a statement saying it was not interested in war with its northern neighbour and that it would only withdraw from Heglig if the UN deployed monitors there.
Sudanese President Omar al-Bashir had earlier threatened to bring down the government in Juba following the loss of Heglig, which provided more than half of Sudan's oil.
'LRA intelligence'
South Sudan's withdrawal has been ordered to create the environment for talks with Khartoum, Reuters news agency reports.
"An orderly withdrawal will commence immediately and shall be completed within three days," AFP news agency quotes a presidential statement as saying.
Mr Kiir said the South still believed that Heglig was a part of South Sudan and that its final status should be determined by international arbitration, Associated Press reported.
Heglig is internationally accepted to be part of Sudanese territory - although the precise border is yet to be demarcated.
In the latest of intense diplomatic efforts to prevent a wider conflict, US special envoy Princeton Lyman visited Khartoum on Thursday.
The regional body Igad, which mediated the 2005 peace deal, expressed "grave concern about the escalating conflict" and said it would "extend all possible assistance to maintain peace and stability".
Uganda, a close ally of South Sudan, also indicated it might become involved if the fighting became a full-scale war.
"We will not sit by and do nothing," Ugandan military chief Gen Aronda Nyakairima was quoted by Uganda's private Daily Monitor newspaper as saying.
A Ugandan army spokesman told the BBC that diplomacy would be exhausted before any military action was ever considered.
During Sudan's civil conflict, Uganda accused the Khartoum government of supporting the Lord's Resistance Army, which was fighting in northern Uganda.
Uganda backed the South Sudanese rebels during the civil war and now has extensive economic interests in the newly independent country.
The LRA, led by Joseph Kony, who has been subject of a recent viral online campaign highlighting his activities, now roam the jungles of Central African Republic, South Sudan and the Democratic Republic of Congo.
"We will be involved having suffered a proxy war by Khartoum," Gen Nyakairima told the Daily Monitor.
"Our people in northern Uganda suffered and intelligence information also indicates that the LRA, who have an estimated 200 guns, are again in contact with Khartoum," he said.
