Some South Sudan states were controlled by the rebels, e.g.
Adar, Sobat.
Sobat was in the (later) regular Latjoor state. Adar (also called Central Upper
Nile) was in the disputed Upper Nile state.
At that time there was also
a drawing for the "Greater Upper Nile Region", later used by parties like the
"Upper Nile Liberation Front" or the "Workers Party of Upper Nile" (photos of
those flags not found). Greater Upper Nile Region was a would-be reconstitution
of the former Upper White Nile sector when South Sudan (in 2005-2011) was
divided into Bahr El Ghazal, Equatoria and Upper White Nile. Upper White Nile
consisted of the three states of Upper Nile, Jongley and Unity.

The flag has three horizontal stripes separated by two very narrow white ones
and a hoist triangle overall: The stripes are black over green over light blue
with white separations and the triangle is red with 10 upright regular
five-pointed stars, arrayed in a regular staggered pattern: in four columns
with, from the hoist, 4, 3, 2, and 1 star.
