South Sudan army captures main rebel base

South Sudan’s army has captured the main rebel stronghold of Pagak near the Ethiopian border, forcing thousands of people to flee, the rebels said on Monday.

Spokesman Lam Paul Gabriel said rebel forces pulled out of Pagak after coming under attack in the early hours of Sunday.

“We realised it would be costly for civilians and our forces have withdrawn from Pagak,” Lam told Reuters. (ChannelNewsASia)
