Members of Southern Sudan's army from the SPLA Joint Integrated Units board embark an United Nations Mission In Sudan (UNMIS) truck in Wau enroute to Abyei in this picture released by UNMIS on June 18, 2008. The United Nations has so far found 89 bodies in the disputed oil-rich Abyei region of Sudan from fighting that erupted last month, a senior U.N. official said on Monday. A joint north-south force is due to be deployed in Abyei this week after the clashes, which raised fears of a return to all-out civil war. Both north and south covet the central region, home to one of Sudan's two main oil fields. REUTERS/Tim Mckulka/UNMIS/Handout (SUDAN). FOR EDITORIAL USE ONLY.
