CHAD-FRANCE-UNREST-EUFOR

EUFOR soldiers, Magali Dupouy, 25, (L) and soldier premiere class Melanie Cyrus, 21, pose at Camp des Etoiles in Abechee, eastern Chad on June 25, 2008. The mainly French EUFOR force, expected to reach 3,700 soldiers, has a one-year mission to help facilitate humanitarian work and protect some 250,000 refugees from war-torn Darfur in neighbouring Sudan who have fled to camps in eastern Chad. Chad’s rebel National Alliance said on June 22 that President Idriss Deby Itno had lost his mind when he accused the EU peacekeeping mission in the country of being rebel stooges.
