US President Barack Obama has signed an executive order authorising sanctions against anyone aggravating the conflict in South Sudan.
The order sets out a list of offences for which sanctions may be imposed, including attacking UN peacekeepers and commissioning human rights abuses.
In December, fighting broke out between troops loyal to President Salvar Kiir and his sacked deputy, Riek Machar.
The South Sudanese government says it is considering its response.
South Sudanese Presidential spokesman Ateny Wek Ateng told the BBC that ministers were now studying the US order.
The conflict has forced more than 860,000 people to flee their homes.
A ceasefire was agreed between the two sides towards the end of January, but they have accused each other of violating it.
Peace talks between the two sides are being hosted in neighbouring Ethiopia.
‘No excuses’
The executive order authorises sanctions against both individuals and entities who take part in a wide number of offences, including: threatening “the peace, security, or stability of South Sudan”, obstructing the peace talks and the use or recruitment of child soldiers.
“The United States will not stand by as those entrusted with South Sudan’s future put their own interests above those of their people,” White House spokesman Jay Carney said, according to AFP.
“Both the government of South Sudan and Riek Machar’s rebels must immediately engage in and follow through on the inclusive peace process… and resolve this conflict.
“The people of South Sudan are calling for peace. There is no room for excuses or delay.”
Reports say the EU and UN Security Council are also considering similar actions.
Despite the 23 January ceasefire deal, sporadic fighting has continued.
South Sudan, the world’s newest nation, became independent after seceding from Sudan in 2011.

U.N.: Chad soldiers kill 30 civilians
U.N.: Soldiers from Chad killed civilians in neighboring Central African Republic
Soldiers from Chad entered a market in the Central African Republic capital of Bangui last week, killed about 30 civilians, wounded another 300 and returned to Chad, according to preliminary findings by the United Nations Human Rights Office.
The incident reflected the growing complexity of the situation in the Central African Republic, a former French colony plunged into chaos last year after a coalition of mostly Muslim rebels ousted President Francois Bozize.
They have since been forced out of power, but Christian and Muslim militias continue to battle for control.
Human rights investigators said the March 29 incident began when Chadian national army soldiers entered Bangui in a convoy of several military pick-up trucks.
They entered a crowded market where shoppers included women and children, and opened fire, a U.N. report said Friday.
“As panic-stricken people fled in all directions, the soldiers allegedly continued firing indiscriminately,” said Rupert Colville, spokesman for the U.N.’s office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights.
“Several sources told the investigating team that they believed the Chadian force had entered Bangui to extract remaining Chadians and other Muslim inhabitants in order to save them from further attacks by (Christian militias),” Colville said.
The U.N. said the soldiers who were responsible for the Bangui attack were Chadian soldiers but not among those who are part of the African-led International Support Mission peacekeeping mission that’s trying to stabilize the Central African Republic.
“It seems they have gone straight back to Chad without being apprehended,” Colville said of the attackers.
About 850 Chadian soldiers are part of the 6,000-strong peacekeeping presence, but on Thursday, Chad’s foreign ministry issued a statement saying the country planned to withdraw its troops from the force, according to CNN French affiliate BFMTV.
“Despite the sacrifices we have made, Chad and Chadians have been targeted in a gratuitous and malicious campaign that blamed them for all the suffering in (Central African Republic),” said a statement from Chad’s foreign ministry.

Two drug-smuggling tunnels with rail systems stretching hundreds of yards across the U.S.-Mexico border were discovered by law enforcement officials, and a 73-year-old woman was charged with helping run one operation, federal authorities said Friday.
No contraband was found in connection with the tunnels, which linked warehouses in Tijuana, Mexico, and the Otay Mesa area of San Diego, according to a statement from U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s Homeland Security Investigations.
The first tunnel, stretching about 600 yards, was discovered Tuesday. It was described as being equipped with lighting, a crude rail system and wooden trusses.
The entrance on the U.S. side is inside a warehouse where a cement cap covered a 70-foot shaft. A pulley system was installed to hoist goods into the building, which was filled with children’s toys and boxes of televisions.
The other tunnel, located Thursday, stretches more than 700 yards and was built with more sophisticated features including a multi-tiered electric rail system and ventilation equipment.
On Wednesday, investigators with the San Diego Tunnel Task Force arrested Glennys Rodriguez from the San Diego suburb of Chula Vista.
The U.S. attorney’s office has charged her with conspiracy to maintain a drug-involved premises. It wasn’t immediately clear whether she had obtained an attorney.
The tunnels were the sixth and seventh found in the area in less than four years, ICE said.
U.S. Attorney Laura Duffy said the discoveries foiled cartel plans to sneak large quantities of drugs across the border.
“Going underground is not a good business plan,” she said in a statement.

Xbox Live Hacked by Five Year Old Child

Xbox Live Hacked by Five-Year-Old Child

Five-year-old, Kristoffer Von Hassel, from San Diego exposed a major security flaw in Microsoft’s Xbox Live password system when he hacked into his dad’s account without the password. The young child managed to discover what no other adult or developer did in all these months the console has been widely popular. Accessing his father’s Xbox Live service not only allowed him to access all his father’s games but also provided him with the option to make purchases.
Kristoffer managed to enter into his father’s Xbox Live service when he discovered that entering the wrong password into the log-in screen prompts a second password verification screen, where all he had to do was simply press the space bar — to fill up the password field — and then the system let him gain access into the account.
The security glitch was discovered when Kristoffer’s parents noticed him playing games on the Xbox Live that he was not supposed to be playing as they could only be accessed by entering the password to his father’s account.
The parents of the five-year-old child asked him how he had managed to play those games, to which, Kristoffer showed his father, Robert Davies, how he had managed to hack into the Xbox Live account.
Speaking to a local news station KGTV, Kristoffer said that initially he had been delighted with his feat and went like “yea!” However, like any young child, once the sense of achievement subsided, he got nervous that his dad would discover what he had done. The five-year-old thought that his father’s Xbox would be stolen because he had unlocked the account by messing with the password.
On the other hand, Davies also said his first reaction had been of amusement as he thought it was “awesome” and “cool” that a five-year-old had been able to “find a vulnerability” to one of the most popular and talked about games in the world.
