Chad to withdraw peace-keeping forces from CAR

The Chadian Foreign Ministry announced today that it will pull out its peacekeeping troops from the African Union mission in the Central African Republic in protest of allegations that they were aiding rebels.

The Foreign Ministry’s statement outlined that its forces has been victim of  a “gratuitous and malicious campaign” that placed blame on them for the escalating suffering and conflict in CAR.

Last week Chadian forces were blamed for the deaths of 24 civilians in the capital of CAR, Bangui.
