Fragile stalemate emerges after fighting in Sudan's Abyei region
Without the option of going home, some of those who initially fled further south are now arriving in Aniet and its neighboring town,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Agok. The market that was abandoned last week is seeing some activity, though there is very little to buy; the area's main supply route comes from the north and cuts through Abyei,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], so no goods are coming through. Soldiers and gun-toting civilians are everywhere.
Abyei resident Rou Manyiel, a father of three,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], just arrived in Aniet after spending the past week in a more remote area further south, where they failed to find shelter. "The people there were very generous, but we need a place to put up,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]," he said,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], noting with some embarrassment that the host community provided his family with the small meals they have had since they left Abyei on the evening SAF invaded.
The family is still sleeping outside,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], but now they're staying under a tree on a small plot of land where they lived when Abyei was attacked in 2008. "Our house used to be there,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]," Mr. Manyiel said,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], pointing to a patch of soil with the faint footprint of a small hut. "Once I have my family settled, I will proceed to Abyei and help take back the town," he said.
Manyiel was trained as a soldier in Cuba and then fought for the rebel Sudan People's Liberation Army during the civil war. Now he is a veterinarian and the president of a coalition of the Abyei civil society groups. Wearing a beige polo shirt, sneakers, and ankle socks, the AK-47 slung across his shoulder is conspicuous. "When the invasion began, I took this gun from some police," he explained. "I'm not a soldier anymore,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], but I have to defend my family."
As bombs fell,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Manyiel's wife ran with their three small children. Manyiel said he stayed behind with some of the men from their community to try to defend the town. After about two hours of fighting, they left as well when they realized they were outnumbered and overpowered.
In 2008,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Misseriya militias and SAF soldiers attacked Abyei,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], leaving many of the buildings charred or burned to the ground. There were no aerial bombardments, a marked difference from the recent attack. The Ngok Dinka population largely fled to Agok, like Manyiel's family,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], where they waited until it was safe to go back. This time,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], even the population of Agok fled south,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], fearing that the northern army would advance beyond the river.
