\'128 killed\' in Darfur tribal clashes

About 128 people have been killed in renewed clashes between rival tribes in Sudan\'s strife-torn Darfur region. Arab Misseriya tribesmen and members of the rival Salamat tribe were involved in fierce fighting once again on Monday and Tuesday. Khartoum newspaper said around 100 members of Salamat tribe died in the violence, with 28 Misseriya fighters being killed. Last week, 94 people, mostly belonging to the Salamat tribe were killed in the violence. The fighting erupted despite the  two tribes signing a peace agreement on July 3 under which they were to pay compensation to each other. On Saturday, in North Darfur state, two other Arab tribes, the Beni Hussein and Rezeigat, inked a peace deal to end a separate conflict, which a member of parliament said killed hundreds over several weeks. Three areas of Darfur have been hit by violence in the last 12 months. In the north, fighting between Beni Hussein, Rezeigat and Abbala tribes has forced dozens to flee the area. In Wadi Saleh, central Darfur, state authorities are hopeful of arranging a reconciliation conference between Arab Misseriya and Salamat tribes. Finally, in the southern area of Kateela, tribesmen from al-Qamar and Beni Helba have been involved in a series of confrontations since last May. Ninety-four people have been killed in the violence, with 1200 ?houses set alight and 14 villages burnt. The two groups ?signed a peace agreement last April.?
