Peacekeeper in Darfur Killed in Ambush

A peacekeeper with the joint UN-African Union forces operating in Sudan’s Darfur region was killed in an ambush on Tuesday.

 

According to reports a group of peacekeepers had been returning from patrol in Nyala when a number of armed men opened fire on the group. One of the peacekeepers was airlifted to a base in North Darfur where they were pronounced dead.

 

The attack comes just one day after Sudanese President Omar al-Bashir declared he wanted all international organizations out of Sudan within a year. He was recently indicted by the International Criminal Court on war crimes charges but Sudan’s government has dismissed those charges.
