...violence soon erupts in the disputed region of Abyei, claimed by both the North and the South.

On June 6, 2011, armed conflict breaksout in South Kordofan between the forces of Northern and Southern Sudan, ahead of the scheduled independence of the South on July 9

This follows an agreement for both sides to withdraw from Abyei.

The parties agreed on June 20 to demilitarize the contested area of Abyei where Ethiopian peacekeepers will be deployed.
