Sudanese air raid on South Sudan; Not again!


It was announced on Monday that two fighter jets fired four missiles near the South Sudanese town of Bentiu which is divided by a river, hitting an open-air market, witnesses said.

Meanwhile, it was recorded earlier, that Sudanese leader Omar al-Bashir ruled out talks with South Sudan, which could be a pointer to what just happen.

A Sudanese military commander, Kamal Marouf, was also quoted by Radio Sudan's website as saying that more than 1,200 South Sudanese had been killed.

Not too long after the bombing, Ban Ki-moon condemned the bombardment and called on Sudan to cease all hostilities immediately, a spokesman for the secretary-general said in a statement, also, the United Nations called for Sudan to halt the aerial bombings after what it described as four morning attacks, including one on the capital of oil-rich Unity state.

"There will be no negotiation with the South,"
Bashir said Monday in Arabic on Sudanese government radio. "We have spoken to them now with guns and bullets. ... We will teach the government of South Sudan a lesson."


Both countries are accusing each other of being behind the destruction.

THE QUESTION IS WHO ARE WE TO BELIEVE?

SAY NO TO WAR!!!
