NAIROBI, Kenya — The presidents of Sudan and the new nation of South Sudan are both predicting the possibility of a new war in an oil-rich region that has seen a spike in cross-border attacks.

Troop build-ups are being reported on both sides of the Sudan-South Sudan border, the world’s newest international boundary, and rebels in Sudan announced a new alliance with the aim of overthrowing their own government, which is seated in the capital, Khartoum.

Sudan President Omar al-Bashir accuses the south of arming what he calls rebels in Sudan. South Sudan President Salva Kiir said al-Bashir’s accusations are only to justify “his pending invasion.”
