Larry, Yes, confirmed- very, very heavy fighting in the Sudan right now in a number of areas in the Country.. Unusually heavy before the rainy season... Last minute maneuverings before a deal is struck??? Just a thought... More likely an escalation of the violence. Let's see what the African Militias allied with the NIF Military junta do.. very critical to Talisman's project the result of the outbreak of fighting between the SSDM and the regular army units.... If the Khartoum/Port Sudan road is effectively cut by the rebels, then we may see a peace deal follow soon thereafter.... News Article by DPA on May 06, 1999 at 12:13:26: Sudan defence and security council discusses war situtation Khartoum (dpa) - The Sudanese national and defence council met Thursday at the General Command of the Sudanese Armed Forces in Khartoum under the chairmanship of President Omar Beshir to discus the escalation of the civil war in the east and south of the country. · According to the state-owned Radio Omdurman, a number of measures were taken to contain the situation. No details were revealed. · The meeting took place against the background of military operations by the combined forces of the northern Sudanese opposition forces and the southern-based Sudan People's Liberation Army (SPLA) on the highway linking the Sudanese capital to Port Sudan on the Red Sea. · The intention of the opposition is to cut off the port from the hinterland to cripple the government. · The rebels claim to have taken control of the town of Rasai north of Kassala. · But Radio Omdurman quoted the military spokesman, General Mohamed Osman Yassin, as saying Thursday that the government forces were in full control of the battle zones. · Yassin said the rebel attempt to attack the oil fields in Upper Nile state in Southern Sudan was repelled and that the government soldiers' morale was quite high.
