State Media: Sudan Cuts Ties With Chad After Rebel Attack
The countrys interior minister said government forces successfully chased away the rebels by nightfall, about three hours after the first outbreak of violence, and killed a rebel leader and his aide. He said most of the victims wore turbans distinctive to rebel areas. The government later extended a curfew, saying some rebel members shed their uniforms and could be hiding among civilians. We urge both sides to cease hostilities, whether it is the rebel group or the government, said spokesman Gordon Johndroe.
