South Sudan’s main opposition party has withdrawn from the country’s peace monitoring body, accusing rival forces of unprovoked attacks.
The Sudan People’s Liberation Movement in Opposition said the latest armed assault took place on Monday.
The party is led by the Vice-President, Riek Machar, who two years ago formed a unity government with his former enemy Salva Kiir.
Continued tension between the two men has prevented the implementation of a peace deal aimed at ending a five year civil war in which 400,000 people died.
