CAIRO — Tribal clashes over several days killed 25 people in southern Sudan, the country’s doctors union said Wednesday, raising fears the war between the country’s rival top generals – currently centered in the capital – could set off more violence in far-flung provinces.
Deadly tribal violence is not uncommon in Sudan’s south and west, where disputes dating back to the country’s split from South Sudan remain unresolved. U.N. deputy spokesman Farhan Haq said Wednesday that food insecurity in Sudan is expected to surge to record levels due to the conflict, affecting more than 19 million people, or two-fifths of the population, according to the World Food Program
The talks, the first since the fighting erupted, are a part of a Saudi-U.S. initiative meant to stop the fighting.
