Fresh talks to resolve South Sudan's crisis open more than two weeks after a ceasefire and despite a refusal to release detainees, a key rebel demand.

Peace talks between South Sudan's government and rebels resume in the Ethiopian capital, Addis Ababa, with a 10 August deadline to agree a ceasefire.

Talks between South Sudan's government and rebels are due to start later on Tuesday in attempt to agree to a ceasefire, mediators say.

The failure of peace talks and the end of South Sudan’s wet season could unleash fresh fighting between government forces and rebel factions, propelling millions of people in the world’s youngest nation back towards a man-made famine, analysts and humanitarian workers warn.

Sudanese government delegates have arrived in Ethiopia for African Union-mediated peace talks with rebels aimed at stopping civil war, AU officials said Tuesday.
