The East Darfur state authorities have deployed police forces in the area of Labado in Yassin locality to prevent clashes between Ma’aliya and Rizeigat tribesmen. In two separate incidents today, in East Darfur three people were killed, and eight others were wounded.
“After the death of two Rizeigat near the Labado camp for the displaced on Tuesday morning, police forces were deployed to search for the killers, and prevent revenge attacks,” the commissioner of Yassin locality, Abdelrahman Eisa, told Radio Dabanga.
“Large numbers of armed fighters from both tribes had gathered in the area, and the situation became very tense after the clash between Rizeigat and a rescue team existing of Ma’aliya on Tuesday.”
Member of Parliament for Abu Karinka constituency has called for the deployment of more buffer troops between the two warring tribes. He noted that recently many groups of gunmen appeared in East Darfur. “They steal, plunder, and kill as they like”.
