Hi Kids- Who knows whats really happening?? Sudanese army admits 23 men killed defending Wau ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [ Latest News From Sudan At Sudan.Net ] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ News Article by AFP on January 30, 1998 at 23:03:53: Sudanese army admits 23 men killed defending Wau KHARTOUM, Jan 31 (AFP) - The Sudanese army admitted on Friday that it had lost 23 men, including four officers, defending the southern town of Wau against rebels of the Sudan People's Liberation Army this week. But inspite of the losses, the government had retained control of Wau, the capital of Bahr al-Ghazal state, deputy chief of staff, General Abdul-Raman Siral-Khatim was quoted by SUNA news agency as saying. He said about 500 SPLA troops had attacked Wau at midnight on Wednesday in an assault which coincided with other attacks in the same state against Gogrial and Aweil. On Thursday, the SPLA said in a communique that it had captured six strategic points in Wau, including the airport and railway headquarters. Wau is the second biggest town in southern Sudan after Juba still in government hands. Rebels in southern Sudan, where the population is largely non-Moslem, have been fighting the government since 1983 in an attempt to end domination by the Islamic and Arabised north.
