A - 'both sides are intent on creating difficulties for the other'. If 'both sides' (i.e. the two sides together) are creating difficulties, there in no 'other' left for them to create difficulties for. Incorrect. C - 'each side is intent on creating difficulties for the other'. For each side, 'other' is the side not mentioned, and they are creating difficulties for that side. Correct. C it is.

The story is: there are X and Y fighting each other from opposite sides like in a tennis game. It is clear that there is no other third party. However, if X and Y both join, whom will they fight with? There is nobody on the other side. This is the crux. Therefore, any choice having - both and each other - is wrong. A, B and E are gone. (C) each side is intent on creating difficulties for the other --- correct (D) each side is intent on creating difficulties for one another ---- for one another is usable when more than two are involved. So drop D C is the pick. HTH
