South Sudan vice president arrested, UN warns of imminent conflict

South Sudan's fragile peace deal appears shattered as Vice President Riek Machar is placed under house arrest. The opposition has declared the long-standing peace agreement collapsed, warning of imminent conflict. Regional leaders are urgently calling for dialogue between Machar and President Salva Kiir to prevent a slide back into civil war. The United Nations has issued a stark warning, expressing concern that the nation is on the brink of another devastating conflict.
