Sudanese forces have been deployed along the disputed border with Ethiopia.
The military declared that they had full control of the region, escalating tensions with Addis Ababa.
On 1 December Sudanese troops announced that they had dismantled and took control of an Ethiopian settlement in the disputed al-Fashga region.
The announcement comes after reports of 21 Sudanese soldiers killed and 30 others injured in clashes with Ethiopian forces at Birkat Nauren in the disputed region four days ago.
After the conflicts, Sudan’s military ruler, Lieutenant General Abdel-Fatah al-Burhan, vowed that his country would “not give an inch of territory” to Ethiopia.
