TORIT – A group of soldiers belonging to the Ugandan People’s Defense Forces (UPDF) has attacked a SSPDF garrison at a village in South Sudan’s Eastern Equatoria state killing at least two soldiers before walking away with their bodies, according to a lawmaker.

John  Ochan, a member of South Sudan Transitional National Legislative Assembly (TNLA) representing Eastern Equatoria state, said the attack took place on Tuesday, when a group of UPDF soldiers attacked a SSPDF outpost at Poke village after crossing to South Sudan.

“A number of Ugandan army soldiers illegally crossed to South Sudan and attacked Poke village where the South Sudan People’s Defense Force is having a outpost. There, they killed two soldiers and this is because out troops were not aware of any attack. They were surprised,” he said.

The lawmaker further said the UPDF soldiers took the bodies of the two South Sudan soldiers and walked away with them, urging the army in Juba to seek way out of continued Ugandan attack against territories of South Sudan.

“They then walked away with the bodies of our soldiers,” her said.

“What I want is to urge the army in Juba to end this illegal Ugandan army activities because it is becoming a concern to our local population in the areas bordering Uganda,” he added.
