Sudan rebels extend campaign to outside Darfur
Darfur rebels have attacked an oil field in Southern Kordofan, making a rare extension of their campaign eastwards toward Khartoum, the rebels and government said today.
The National Redemption Front said its fighters had seized the Abu Jabra oil field on the edge of South Darfur and Southern Kordofan yesterday. “The government garrison guarding the oil field was totally destroyed,” the NRF said in a statement.
