Wider Sudan War Would Be ‘Coordinated’ Against Army: SPLM

A wider war may erupt in northern Sudan if clashes in Southern Kordofan state are not resolved, and it would be “coordinated” against the Sudanese army, Malik Agar, governor of northern Sudan’s border Blue Nile state said.

The war could spread along the border with the south from Blue Nile state on the Ethiopia border in the east to the western Sudanese region of Darfur, Agar, who’s also the head of the northern branch of the south’s ruling Sudan People’s Liberation Movement, told reporters today in Khartoum, Sudan’s capital.
