There were no injuries but a shop was burned and United Nations peacekeepers had to intervene to stop the unrest in Abyei town between members of the Dinka and Misseriya communities, said the source, who requested anonymity. \"When South Sudanese were celebrating, the Misseriya came,\" he said. The nomadic and Arab Misseriya are historically allied to Khartoum. \"It is a small clash between the two communities,\" the source said.
