“According to the IGAD Joint Technical Committee in Juba and based on the report of the Monitoring and Verification Team in Nasir, the SPLM/A–In Opposition forces crossed the Sobat River from the East. It is regrettable that this incident has come at a time when the mediation team just concluded consultations with the leadership of the SPLM/A–In Opposition in Addis Ababa, on how to operationalize the signed Agreements and move the peace process forward.“
