Negotiators from South Sudan's two warring sides are scheduled to arrive in Ethiopia for peace talks late Wednesday, as the top United Nations official in the country urged both forces to bring the country "back from the brink." According to AP, fighting continued Wednesday in South Sudan's city of Bor - a gateway city to the capital, Juba - a government official said. Bor is just 120 kilometers (75 miles) from Juba. Bor, the capital of Jonglei state, is the current center of ethnically-based violence stemming from the political rivalry between President Salva Kiir and ousted Vice President Riek Machar, the rebel leader accused of mounting a failed coup attempt. More than 1,000 people have been killed in the violence, says the U.N.
