Tirada dhimashada iyo mas'uuliyadda la sheegay
Yohana Akol Ngor, oo ah wasiirka warfaafinta Abyei, ayaa Reuters u sheegay Talaadada in tirada dhimashadu ay ka badan labanlaabtay, iyadoo gaartay ugu yaraan 153 qof marka la barbardhigo 73 qof oo la sheegay maalintii hore. Waxa uu sheegay in ciidanka Suudaan uu mas'uul ka ahaa weerarka, balse ma uu bixin wax caddayn ah. Waxa kale oo uu sheegay in qiyaastii 8,000 oo qof ay ku barakaceen duqeynta.
Wasaaradda Arrimaha Dibadda ee Koonfurta Suudaan ayaa iyaduna eedda saartay ciidanka Suudaan, waxaanay sheegtay in drone-ku uu ku dhuftay meelo badan oo ku hareeraysan suuqa mashquulka badan. Koonfurta Suudaan waxa ay sheegtay in ay soo wacday safiirka Suudaan si ay uga mudaaharaaddo, waxaanay ku baaqday in Suudaan ay ka fogaato falalka khatarta geliya nolosha iyo hantida dadka rayidka ah.
Dhaawacyo iyo dab ka kacay bakhaar shidaal
Marka la eego marqaatiyada dadka goobjoogga ah, mid ka mid ah meelaha la dhuftay waxa uu ahaa bakhaar shidaal, taas oo keentay dab weyn oo ay adkayd in la xakameeyo habeenkii oo dhan, waxaanu weli gubanayay Talaadada. Dhakhtarka Christian Lindauer, oo ah maareeyaha hawlaha caafimaadka ee MSF ee isbitaalka Ameth Bek, ayaa sheegay in ilaa hadda la helay in ka badan 20 bukaan, oo ay ku jiraan dhawr xaaladood oo halis ah, isagoo intaa ku daray in bukaannada gubashada qaba iyaguna la seexiyay.
Afhayeenka Qaramada Midoobay Stephane Dujarric ayaa Talaadada weriyeyaal ugu sheegay magaalada New York in ay weli ka walaacsan yihiin weerarrada drone-ka ee aan joogsiga lahayn ee ka socda Suudaan, iyo waxyeellada ay u geystaan kaabayaasha muhiimka ah, isagoo sheegay in weerarradani ay saameyn ba'an ku hayaan bulshooyinka horey uga daalan cawaaqibka colaad ka badan saddex sano.
Abyei iyo xiisadda Suudaan
Abyei oo hodan ku ah saliidda ayaa xaaladdeeda aan la xallin heshiiskii nabadda ee 2005, kaas oo guud ahaan soo afjaray tobannaan sano oo dagaal sokeeye oo Suudaan ka socday, lamana xallin 2011 markii Koonfurta Suudaan ay xornimada qaadatay. Afti ayaa la qorsheeyay balse waligiis ma dhicin, isagoo ku hakaday khilaafaad ku saabsan cidda xaqa u leh in ay codeyso, taasoo Abyei uga dhigtay gobol si wadajir ah loo maamulo oo ay ciidan nabadeed oo Qaramada Midoobay ah joogaan muddo 15 sano ah.
Inta badan dadka Ngok Dinka ee gobolka ayaa taageera in ay ku biiraan Koonfurta Suudaan, halka reer guuraaga Misseriya ee daaqa gobolka isticmaala ay taageeraan Suudaan.
Abyei's caretaker information minister told Reuters Sudan's military was responsible, without providing evidence; South Sudan's Foreign Ministry also blamed the Sudanese army.
A drone strike hit the busy Amiet Market in Abyei around midday on Monday, and a local official said on Tuesday the death toll had reached at least 153, up from a stated figure of 73 the previous day.
Casualty toll rises as officials trade blame
Yohana Akol Ngor, the caretaker information minister in Abyei, told Reuters news agency on Tuesday that at least 153 people had been killed, compared with a stated figure of 73 the previous day. He said Sudan's military was responsible for the attack but did not provide evidence, and he said around 8,000 people had been displaced by the bombing.
South Sudan's Foreign Ministry also blamed the Sudanese army and said the drone struck multiple locations around the busy market. South Sudan said it had summoned Sudan's ambassador to protest and urged Sudan to refrain from any actions that endanger civilian lives and property.
Fire at fuel depot and wounded treated at hospital
Witness accounts indicated that one of the locations struck was a fuel depot, leading to a large fire that proved difficult to bring under control overnight and was still ablaze on Tuesday.
Medical charity Medecins Sans Frontieres said its staff was treating wounded people at the nearby Ameth Bek hospital. Dr. Christian Lindauer, MSF's medical activities manager at the hospital, said: "So far we received over 20 patients, including several critical cases. Patients with burns were also admitted."
UN voices alarm over drone attacks across Sudan
UN spokesperson Stephane Dujarric told reporters in New York on Tuesday: "We remain alarmed by the relentless drone attacks across Sudan, as well as the damage they are causing to critical infrastructure — these attacks are taking a devastating toll on communities already struggling with the consequences of more than three years of conflict."
The oil-rich Abyei region's status was not resolved by the 2005 peace agreement that broadly ended decades of civil war in Sudan, nor settled in 2011 when South Sudan became independent. A referendum was planned but never materialized, stalling over disputes on who should be allowed to vote, leaving Abyei jointly administered with an interim UN security force on site for 15 years.
