The officer of the NCP-SPLM Joint Office for Humanitarian Aid in Abyei, Dao Miang, refuted reports on Abyei being under siege saying the situation quiet. He confirmed that al Muglad-Abyei road is open and that tens of trucks and buses have left Abyei.

On his part, the Miseriya leader Abdelrasoul al Nour urged the Presidency to send a committee to the area to defuse tensions. Al Nour criticized the SPLM for establishing unilaterally an administration for Abyei.

The UN official Bagot Paul said that a group of the Dinka youth has mobilized all the Dinka except Dinka Ngok. He said similarly the Miseriya tribe has also mobilized its people.
