| [Al Arabiya Latest] Armed men kidnapped two German aid workers in Sudan's Darfur region on Tuesday, U.N. and aid officials said, in the latest in a string of abductions that has disrupted relief work in the territory. The two men working for Technisches Hilfswerk (THW) were taken from their compound in Nyala, the capital of South Darfur state -- the first time kidnappers have ventured into one of the region's main cities, officials said. "Yesterday (Tuesday) evening, seven men, four of them armed with AK-47 rifles, came on foot to the THW compound ... They snatched a Sudanese security guard and two internationals," said the spokesman for Darfur's joint U.N./African Union UNAMID peacekeeping force Kemal Saiki. |
