Maban town braces for a fresh attack

Maban, PR, MP 06 Jan. 2021

News from Northern Upper Nile have indicated, Maban County is bracing for another round of attack.

An insider who spoke from the position of anonymity told ‘MP’ that, the security situation inside Funj town was tense as many people were seen running in a mock, fleeing the area for their lives.

Huge army accompanying armour vehicles mounted with sub-machine guns were spotted some few kilometres away from Maban town. They were approaching from different directions mainly, Genesa, Lianes and Duro. Sources revealed.

Sources said war is looming in Funj areas. Organize forces are on high alert and its citizens are confused.

They are scared whether they would survive government-backed militias onslaught tonight or in the early morning hours tomorrow.

Two days ago, skirmishes were reported in the area between government-backed militias and forces loyal to the opposition leader Dr Riek Machar.
