Chad’s army clashed with rebels on Thursday outside the town of Nokou, the army said. Nokou is 12 miles from where President Idriss Deby was killed, while visiting troops on the frontline, 10 days ago.
The army has been battling the Front for Change and Concord in Chad (FACT) in the Kanem desert region along the border with Niger since mid-April. FACT draws mostly from the Goran ethnic group.
During the most recent fighting, the army claimed to have wiped out “several hundred” rebels.
