JUBA, Sudan -- Southern Sudan's military spokesman says 20 policemen in the disputed north-south region of Abyei have been killed and 30 more wounded in two attacks by Arab tribesmen and militia.
Col. Philip Aguer said Monday that he believes the Arab tribesmen are supported by north Sudan's military. Aguer said the tribesmen attacked the police with anti-tank weapons and artillery.
Aguer says the attack came Sunday, the day that Southern Sudan began voting in an independence referendum likely to split Sudan in two and create the world's newest country.
Abyei, which lies on the north-south faultline, had been promised a separate self-determination vote, but its future is now being decided by north-south negotiations.
