NAIROBI, Apr 11: South Sudanese authorities imposed a curfew across the whole northwestern state of Wau today, the deputy governor said, a day after at least 16 civilians died in clashes in its main town.
Residents said ethnic militias aligned to the government in the country’s civil war searched house to house for members of other groups in Wau town yesterday.
The army said the violence erupted after a mutiny among soldiers guarding Wau’s prison, and it was waiting for more information on what happened.
