On August 23, an administrative vehicle belonging to Kiir’s SSPDF was ambushed on its way to a base at Mile 55 resulting in the loss of the lives of 4 soldiers including one Colonel Bethuel Lasuba. The ambush, we can now confirm, was an internal SSPDF operation carried out by disgruntled and demoralized soldiers – a fact that the SSPDF Spokesman badly attempted to cover up by alleging that the National Salvation Front (NAS) was behind it.
When an SSPDF administrative vehicle transporting salaries and food items was ambushed on August 23, they claimed – a week later – that NAS was responsible. This press release not only refutes that, but it also exposes the real truth behind the attack, one that they do not want you to know!
An enemy reconnaissance mission has been effectively neutralized after a small surgical force of the National Salvation Front (NAS) ambushed and destroyed the enemy intelligence mission on Wednesday, August 19 at Kuse Pager in Lobonok County, just a few kilometers from Juba.
Another unprovoked attack by the joint forces of Kiir’s SSPDF and Machar’s SPLM-IO has been defeated in Kajo-Keji county, a day after Juba sent reinforcements to several fronts in preparation for more aggression on NAS forces.
The bodies of two local businessmen have been found along Loka-Lainya after they were reportedly executed and dumped by the roadside by SSPDF operatives in the area.
After their humiliating defeat in April this year, Kiir’s SSPDF and Machar’s SPLM-IO appear to have regrouped and have resumed their joint military campaign against NAS positions in Eastern, Western and Central Equatoria States.
In the morning hours of 25th July 2020, the SSPDF force launched an attack on NAS tactical position at Youndu in Kimba Payam Morobo County. NAS forces fought back in self-defense forcing the enemy to retreat towards Poki Hills and to Kaya town with some casualties.
