Darfur rebels reject new Chinese peacekeepers
By Andrew HeavensSat Nov 24, 11:19 AM ET

Rebels on Saturday demanded Beijing pull its peacekeepers out of Darfur, just hours after a unit of Chinese army engineers flew into the Sudanese region.

More than 130 Chinese engineers arrived in south Darfur's capital Nyala on Saturday to pave the way for a 26,000-strong United Nations/African Union force in the region, where four years of conflict have killed up to 200,000 people.

But the Justice and Equality Movement (JEM) said it would not allow the engineers onto land held by its forces. It accused Beijing of stoking the crisis by supporting Khartoum.

"They are not welcome... They can never come into our area," JEM leader Khalil Ibrahim told Reuters

Interesting. I'll have to try and follow this, as it moves along.
