LRA reported in South Darfur, government denies
Some media outlets in Khartoum have reported that elements of the Ugandan Lord’s Resistance Army have infiltrated into areas of West Darfur State, coming from Bahr El Ghazal in southern Sudan. These reports follow the Darfuri LJM movement’s claim last week that they had captured three LRA fighters in a remote part of South Darfur bordering Bahr El Ghazal and the Central African Republic.
