Reuters: Sudan forces build up outside Darfur camp - U.N. Sudanese forces accused of killing more than 30 people in a raid on a Darfur camp have started to build up their position outside the settlement, raising fears of a new attack, peacekeepers said on Wednesday. The joint U.N./African Union UNAMID peacekeeping force said a patrol had seen Sudanese police erecting tents at a new base close to the Kalma camp for displaced people in south Darfur. UNAMID said it would now deploy its own soldiers and police to Kalma "on a permanent basis" after a tribal leader in the camp said residents were starting to panic about the possibility of a new assault.

Reuters: One killed as women riot over Darfur food cut. One person was killed and six were injured when hundreds of women clashed with police in a Darfur refugee camp in a riot sparked by a reduction in food rations, the United Nations said on Wednesday. The shouting women, armed with sticks, charged at police on Tuesday in west Darfur's Um Shalaya camp, a base for refugees from neighbouring Chad, the UN's Refugee Agency UNHCR said.
