Abraham Dak, information minister of Unity state in South Sudan has told Radio Tamazuj that Sudanese Antonov planes continue to 'violate the sovereignty of South Sudan' by circling above the Pantino area.

Dak said yesterday a Sudanese Antonov circled the area for an hour, whilst another flew over and surveyed the area before leaving.

He called on the international community to intervene and pressure the government in Khartoum to stop its ongoing violations.
