Thousands massacred as two tribes go to war in South Sudan
UN peacekeepers tell residents of Jonglei state capital to flee as raiders approach
Daniel Howden Saturday 07 January 2012
More than 3,000 people have been reported killed in South Sudan during a week of clashes between two tribes in the world's newest state.
Hundreds of children are missing and entire villages are said to have been burnt as a huge raiding party from the Lou Nuer tribe swept through a remote area in the east of the country, attacking their neighbours, the Murle people.
The war party, estimated to be 6,000-strong, has been marching south towards the main town in the Murle area, Pibor, crossing hundreds of miles on foot.
The fighting is part of an escalating war of reprisals between two ethnic groups who rely for survival on vast herds of cattle in one of the least developed countries on earth, and launch regular raids to snatch livestock, women and children.
