April 15, 2017 (JUBA) - South Sudanese rebels allied to the ex-first
vice president Riek Machar have claimed they repulse multiple attacks
by the government forces in Western Bhar el Ghazal and Upper Niles
regions.
Brigadier William Gatjiath Deng, rebel spokesperson says attacks by
the government on their positions have forced them to retaliate and
capture Raja, in Western Bhar el Ghazal on Friday.
In a statement released on Friday, he said clashes have left
thirty-four (34) dead from the government side, adding their fighters
captured six soldiers alive.
“The regime in Juba also lost to the brave SPLA-IO Lion Division
forces under Cdr Major General Musa Hamed Dakuni a very good number of
newly purchased arms including some 80 AK-47 and 4 RPG-7,” he further
said.
A South Sudanese military source told Sudan Tribune Saturday that the
army chief of general staff Paul Malong has moved to the region to
supervise personally the military operations carried by the government
forces on the rebel positions.
In another engagement in Waat and Matot of Upper Nile region, the
rebels claim they destroyed eight (8) Land Cruisers vehicles mounted
gun machines.
The rebel spokesperson said narrated that they forces are surrounding
the Mathiang Anyor government forces in the area.
“The gallant SPLA-IO forces have also managed to protect and evacuate
civilians too much safer locations, as the Juba regime continues to
target them indiscriminately, burn villages, loot properties and
inflict maximum sexual violence on women and young girls,” he added.
Similar fighting has also erupted in Unity State on Friday, with
opposition claims of repulsing the attacks.
“On Friday April 14, 2017 the gallant SPLA-IO forces repulsed Juba
regime aggression under the command of the most notorious and ruthless
Major General Peter Toar Nyuel and Major General Manyoat, whom the JCE
regime in Juba has been using to collide the Nuer with each and to
further execute and advance the JCE policy of exterminating the
non-Dinka South Sudanese in the area”.
Thousands of civilians fled the conflict-affected areas but there are
no details about the bomber of the displaced population.0
UN agencies estimate that tens thousands have died, and over three
million have been displaced, while 5.5 million are at risk of
starvation.
Last February the U.N. declared partial famine in South Sudan and
called to increase the international humanitarian assistance to the
country.

Jaang are doing all they can to collide Nuer versus Nuer but will
end in up in thin air.
Now that Toar Nyuel is dead in Tonga-Parieng road, Borchar shall
any time send Gatluak Thoa’s son and Gony to hell. Western
Bharelghazal warriors are not questioned.
Lt. Gen. CDR James Koang Chuol Ranley will surprise them soon in the jungle.
Viva Dr. Machar ( The voice to the voiceless)

Shollo warriors Aka Aguelek and Lt. Gen Johnson Oliny Thabo’s
sector One are more than ready as we speak. The scene has reached to
the heart of the Shollo land.
The uncalculated invasion in to Shollo land by the Dinka and
their disciples is the worse of all suicides ever attempted in Upper
Nile. SPLA-I.O will do whatever it can, to defense the strategic
Shollo land and Lou.....

Continue..
Just as incompetent Kiir does all he can, to defense Warap
and Faloich oilfields.
Now that, the multiple invasions are made against the
Shollo-Lou lands in order to get rid of the SPLA-I.O
But Nyaborjok and Nyakoniang ( Chienyakoor) will never let
us down under any circumstance.

Garang Akeen. Your government is bunch of crooks. You
can not run a government because you are while like dog that get angry
with understanding anything. Just advice your president to step aside
and you will see peace. As long as you keep saying your government and
keep defending illegitimate government SS is doom. President Kiir was
not elected because there was no presidential election in ss. Ok

Your masters ( Ugandans🇺🇬,JEM🇸🇩, SPLA N,🇸🇩 ) and your
tribal regime have been bombing us with all internationally banned
weapons for the past four years yet non of us quit South Sudan🇸🇸.
Stop daydreaming little boy. This dirty war imposed on South Sudan by
the Dinka will have a negative impact on your bloodlines very soon.
