N'DJAMENA, Chad (AP) - Chad's government said Thursday two Sudanese planes have been bombing villages on the Chadian side of their shared border for two days, causing an unspecified number of deaths.
In an official statement, the government demanded a stop to the attacks along the border, frequently crossed by Sudanese rebels fighting in the western Darfur region and Chadian rebels who operate from bases inside Sudan. It said the government reserves the right to respond with force. "Chad's government informs national and international opinion that two Sudanese aircraft have been bombing since (Wednesday)," the statement said. "Chad condemns this new Sudanese aggression."
The Sudanese ambassador was also called to receive an official protest.
