UNITED NATIONS, April 23 (Reuters) - U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon condemned Sudan's bombardment of a market in the capital of South Sudan's oil-producing Unity State on Monday and urged Khartoum to stop fighting.
"The Secretary-General condemns the aerial bombardment on South Sudan by Sudanese Armed Forces and calls on the Government of Sudan to cease all hostilities immediately," Ban's press office said in a statement.
"(Ban) reiterates that there can be no military solution to the disputes between Sudan and South Sudan," it said. (Reporting By Louis Charbonneau; Editing by Doina Chiacu)
