More Than 100 Killed in Southern Sudan Tribal Clash
Nitin | Sep 22 2009

Gunmen from the Lou Nuer tribe attacked a village of the Dinka Hol tribe on Sunday, driving away security forces who were guarding the remote settlement, Duk Padiet.

Southern army spokesman Kuol Diem Kuol said Monday that the dead include 23 attackers, 28 security forces, and more than 50 villagers. Another 46 people were injured.

Jonglei state has experienced multiple deadly clashes involving the Lou Nuer, the Dinka Hol, and other tribes this year, often triggered by cattle raids or disputes over natural resources
