MPs in Khartoum brand South Sudan 'enemy' state

The fighting over Heglig has fuelled anger in Juba and Khartoum

Sudanese MPs have voted unanimously to brand South Sudan "an enemy".

"The government of South Sudan is an enemy and all Sudanese state agencies have to treat her accordingly," the resolution said.
A Khartoum information ministry official told BBC News the move was linked to South Sudan's seizure last week of the Heglig oil field.
The South had accused Sudan of launching attacks on its territory from the frontier oil field.
South Sudan seceded in July last year following a civil war which ended in 2005.
But a number of major disputes remain, including over oil and the official demarcation of the international border, and there have been a number of clashes since.
UN camp bombed "After the invasion of Heglig we know the real enemy is the Sudan People's Liberation Movement," Rabbie Abd al-Attie, a senior adviser to Sudan's information minister, told the BBC, referring to South Sudan's ruling party.
"It is not the people of the South but the government that is the real enemy and we know how to confront them."
Heglig, which used to provide more than half of Sudan's oil, is internationally accepted to be part of Sudanese territory - although the border area is yet to be demarcated.
Correspondents say South Sudan's take-over of area has fuelled fears of an outright war.
Khartoum has vowed to use "all means" to recapture Heglig.
The parliamentary vote in Khartoum came as a UN spokesman confirmed that Sudanese planes had bombed a UN peacekeepers' camp in South Sudan's border area on Sunday.
No-one was hurt during the attack on the small UN base in Mayom village in Unity state, Kouider Zerrouk said.
But at least 15 people have been killed in other bombing raids in South Sudan over the weekend, eyewitnesses told the BBC.
