South Sudan on Friday accused Sudan of carrying out fresh air attacks
in Northern Bhar El-Ghazal State.



Acting Information Minister, Madut Biar, said the attack was a
violation of the  United Nations Security Council and African Union
call for a cessation of hostilities.

The Sudanese government could not be reached for comment on the claims.

Madut was speaking after a Council of Ministers meeting. Madut did not
give details of any causalities

He said President Salva Kiir Mayardit also briefed the council of on
his meeting with his recent Sudanese cocunterpart, Omar Al-Bashir, in
Addis Ababa.

He said that the two leaders discussed several issues including the
resumption of flights between Juba and Khartoum, the resumption of oil
flow based on the international standard rate and the disagreement
over Abyei administration.

Sudan will not accept a South Sudanese becoming the administrator of
Abyei and South Sudan will not accept a Sudanese for the job.

To break this deadlock, Madut said President Kiir proposed that the UN
and the AU appoint an administrator for Abyei and the two countries
will nominate equal number of representatives to the adminstration.
