Chad pulls troops out of Sudan

By: Kelsey Gierzynski

According to CNN Chad has pulled its troops out of Sudan today. The country of Chad sent in troops in order to destroy bases that they thought housed rebells that were in training there. They attacked with airstrikes and ground troops. There were seven bases that were destroyed in total. Earlier this month the military of Chad killed rebels after attacks. They said that this was in order to prevent any more attacks on their people. Earlier both the countries sat down and signed an agreement that neither one of them would fund these rebel groups. However, later on after the agreement was signed, Chad said that they believed Sudan was feeding money into rebel groups inside of Chad, which Sudan denies any thing like that.
