JUBA (Reuters) - The United States, Britain and Norway have called on parties in South Sudan's conflict to stop violating a ceasefire signed last month, their heads of mission in the capital Juba said on Tuesday. The United States, Britain and Norway form a group that supported the 2005 accord leading to the independence of South Sudan from Sudan. They added that field commanders and their political bosses would be held accountable for violating the ceasefire and impeding humanitarian assistance. The war in South Sudan, the world's youngest country, was triggered by Kiir's decision in 2013 to sack his deputy, Riek Machar. South Sudan's presidential spokesman Ateny Wek Ateny told Reuters the Juba government had no link to any missing citizens in Kenya.
