Sudan Declares State of Emergency along Border with South Sudan

War looms as hostilities intensify between Sudan and its new neighbor

Sudan has declared a state of emergency along the border with South Sudan amid rising tensions, imposing a trade embargo against the newly formed country of South Sudan.

Disputes over oil revenue, citizenship issues, cross border raids  and border demarcation between the two countries have resulted in border clashes in recent months.

Sudan had accused South Sudan of using foreign mercenaries to capture the oil-producing Heglig region, which it has now recaptured, reports said.
