JUBA, Sudan — A confidential United Nations report warns that the invasion by Sudan’s military of the contested north- south region of Abyei could lead to “ethnic cleansing” if the tens of thousands of residents who fled are not able to return.

The U.N. human-rights report — dated May 29 and marked “Not for Public Citation or Distribution” — said the north’s Khartoum government may have carried out a premeditated military plan to invade Abyei when Sudanese Armed Forces, or SAF, troops moved in May 21.
