Sudan has reportedly mobilized large numbers of forces to deploy to South Darfur to restore peace and order in the restive state, following reports of bloody clashes between rival tribes there.
The state news agency SUNA cited South Darfur state s governor as saying that the decision had been made after 15 people were killed in tribal violence that erupted over access to a local water source.
