The South Sudan People\u2019s Defence Forces (SSPDF) Fourth Infantry commander in Unity State, Maj. Gen. Manyang Mayak, claimed the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) are collaborating with a South Sudanese rebel group to launch an attack on Heglig oil fields.<\/p>\n

Speaking to The City Review on Friday, Gen. Mayak claimed the SSPDF soldiers on the border have been monitoring the RSF\u2019s collaboration with South Sudanese rebels under the leadership of Gen. Stephen Buay Rolnyang.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe were informed by our soldiers on the border that the RSF and the forces led by Gen. Buay Rolnyang were about to attack Heglig oilfields on Wednesday,\u201d Mayak said.<\/p>\n

He added, \u201cWe came here yesterday [Thursday] with the security advisor for Unity State and commissioner of Rubkona County.\u201d<\/p>\n

Gen. Mayak alleged that the RSF had been recruiting South Sudanese youth to back them up in their fight with the Sudanese army.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat is the reason why RSF is collaborating with the forces loyal to Gen. Stephen Buay.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cBuay has no enough forces to attack Heglig, but because of the Nuer, who were recruited by the RSF, that is why they want to join forces to attack our forces in Heglig,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

He said they have credible information about the collaboration between RSF and Gen. Buay Rolnyang forces in Sudan.<\/p>\n

However, Gen Mayak said they reinforced the border, saying they were ready to fight back if they were attacked Gen Buay.<\/p>\n

However, The City Review could not get rebuttal from the RSF of Sudan or the accused rebel forces.<\/p>\n
