Africa-Press – South-Sudan. <\/strong><\/span> <\/b> South Sudan rebels on Tuesday claimed that they killed at least thirteen (13) government soldiers when a joint force of the South Sudan People\u2019s Defense Forces (SSPDF) and the National Security Service (NSS) launched attack on their base in Mundri East.<\/p>\n

In a statement extended to Sudans Post, NAS said that government intelligence agencies on February 26th sent spies to the rebel base in Mundri East to spark internal disagreements and possibly cause splits within the group\u2019s rank and file.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Leadership of National Salvation Front (NAS) would like to inform its members, the people of South Sudan and members of International Community on the recent security activities of the regime of Salva Kiir and its security forces in Mundri Area Command of Western Equatoria State,\u201d the statement said.<\/p>\n

\u201cOn 26th February 2023, NAS intelligence under Mundri Area Command intercepted activities and movement of South Sudan People\u2019s Defense Forces SSPDF, National Security and some war brokers planning to infiltrate the ranks and files of NAS forces in Mundri Area Command, with the objectives to cause confusion and defections of the forces in the area,\u201d the statement added.<\/p>\n

It said that a convoy of government forces triggered fighting with the rebel forces, resulting in the killing of at least 13 soldiers \u2013 including the alleged traitors \u2013 and capture of ammunitions, and further claimed that two vehicles were destroyed in action.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe enemy force in a convoy of three (3) Land Cruisers crossed into NAS control area which resulted into heavy fighting and the defeat of the SSPDF, National Security force and the traitors from the area. In this counter operation, the enemy lost thirteen (13) soldiers including the traitor, ten (10) AK 47 rifles recovered in good condition and two (2) Land Cruisers destroyed,\u201d the statement said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis operation serves as a lesson and a warning to those masquerading and always survives on the blood of the suffering people as peace brokers; their actions of collaborating with security agencies in helping them to oppress and enslave the people will not be tolerated,\u201d it added.<\/p>\n
