Sudan 'plans huge Darfur attack'.

Quote:

Following a "build-up of forces in the past two weeks", Darfur is a "time-bomb which could explode at any moment," said General Festus Okonkwo... "The quantity of arms and ammunition brought into Darfur to meet the present build-up of troops in the region is [so] astronomical that the issue is no longer whether there will be fighting or not, but when fighting will start," he said. He also blamed the rebel Sudan Liberation Army (SLA) for the killing of two aid-workers in South Darfur. "SLA was involved in the attack as two Land Rovers belonging to Save the Children (UK) were recovered from SLA camp in Jurof," Gen Okonkwo said.
