What's behind renewed violence on South Sudan & Sudan border? | Inside Story


More than fifty people were killed in fighting on South Sudan’s border with Sudan.
A rebel group is blamed for the attacks in the oil-rich Abyei area, which is also claimed by Sudan to the north.
So what’s stirred the violence? Where is it leading?

@SuperFadaka

THIS NEWS IS A BLATANT LIE…. this is so disgusting. Al jazeera will always side against African Blacks

@Refreshed-nj6nr

Your all gambling on what's going on in Abyei and the Media is pushing this out in the face of the world. Media companies have been doing this for long and it's working I don't really understand why people can't see how Media sparks and fuels lies in this world

@ringakol2368

Joshua, knows nothing about the current situation in the region. He tries to be well informed but all is a lie.

@abrahambarach7954

So pathetic that even Aljezera can not even give credibility News

@amalvalentino

@TheTellingU

No one trusts aljazeera……

@emmasu.c850

Honestly the so called Humanitarian Organisations play parts in this conflicts and act like their the saviors

@cavebabybezerkers

Which side is the US backed proxy ???? As far as im concerned south sudan

@kerjokveny2949

The issue is not for people of Abyei or Twic, the problem is our nation government of South Sudan. Our government has failed to maintain peace. Let the central government impose the law and stop these two communities from fighting.
The land shouldn't be owned by communities from the first place.

@saifmesio6533

I don't know when both Sudan and South Sudan reach a lasting peace agreement,resolving their freequent differences?Wherever we live,our hearts are broken with pain due to the freequent deadly violence in our beloved home lands,Sudan and South Sudan.😢

@Tefera-hf8fw

Aren't South Sudanese fed up with killing each other? I am just listening to the news. Take a lesson from Rwanda

@Guotshol2024

Just to correct you,
Kiir is not from Tuch, he is from Aguok Dinka

@joelotao1928

It’s just common sense! They’re literally South Sudanese 🇸🇸..wtf is Sudan 🇸🇩 trying to do with it? Let’s Abyei just go to South Sudan 🇸🇸

@afrikaditm9519

Al Jazeera stop lying. The president is not from.twic Mayardit
Get your facts right and stop instigating, wars🤦🏿‍♂️🤦🏿‍♂️🤦🏿‍♂️🤦🏿‍♂️

@quran3757

United States divided Sudan and make all that how are you guys a group of people in US government to divide a country John Kerry and his friends Obama George w bush all work for the devil

@ringmalek9649

To Douglas Johnson, I'm glad to see he was apart of the interview, You mentioned that during the Abyei Commission in 2005 that Twic Leaders were approaching you with their concerns in regards to their land being Annexed to Abyei Box! why didn't you address it, when you said in your own words that there will be potential dispute in the near future, you saw this coming what was stopping you from addressing the concerns and the Hague ruling and you are apart of the negligence of this whole dispute. It's clear and obvious that South Kiir river is not and has never been apart of the dispute. I'm glad that the Hague ruling didn't succeed, because it was rigged built on lies thats why it didn't work.
Abyei area was demarcated in the northern parts, Western parts and Eastern parts. The Hague ruling never talks about the Southern Parts/South Kiir River, it was instilled based on 1/1/1956 and thats the border between two province, South Kordofan and Bahr el Ghazal and thats another reason the Hague ruling has remained how it is respecting the border. fyi President Salva Kiir is not from Twic Mayardit, Yes were from the same state, Warrap State but a different tribe

@okbustaman

This is nonsense….. sudan is busy fighting the para Army nonsense that was left by the former criminal called BASHIR….

@ALIHASSAN-np6rv

The country should not have been split in the first place the fighting will not end until the two state form one president

@raoufbasit

My God, haven't you people ever heard of living in peace?

@A.D.540

For love of God please bring peace & stability to sudan and south sudan.

@konaguek960

You people live by misfortune of others. Al-Jazeera fake news

@konaguek960

You people in Al-Jazeera are bad people. Why should abyi issue be a factor in destabilising South Sudan 🇸🇸. You people are bad wishers. South Sudan will always be safe 🙏.

@konaguek960

How can you join a country that you belong to. The Dinka Ngok of abyi are south Sudanese and the internationally community just want to show that they are doing something. This issue can be addressed only by south Sudanese.

@MinhNguyen-yl6pf

CIA got their hand on this one

@mieessaayaachis2336

“Welcome to the show”??? I thought this is a news media instead. Everyone has an agenda to push their own interests. Africa is doomed 😢

@CRZ551

Peace. Stop violence

@awerghai8736

Salva Kiir is not from Twic Mayardit but he's fanning violence across South Sudan

@nyanthiidemak2292

Don't forget Greater Jonglei State, where innocent women and children and the elderly are killed frequently by Murle Youth from Greater Pibor, who are being armed intentionally to cause displacement, unrest and to make Jonglei uninhabitable, & South Sudan gov is turning a blind eye😢😢😢
