Escalade de la violence à Tiné : le bilan s'alourdit à la frontière soudanaise

The border town of Tiné, in eastern Chad, is going through a period of great turmoil. Between rocket fire, stray bullets and direct clashes, the security situation has deteriorated considerably in recent days.

Rocket hit in the city center

Yesterday, between 5:00 and 5:30 PM, a rocket-type projectile fired from Sudanese territory struck the heart of Tiné. While local authorities have not reported any casualties in this specific incident, the material damage is significant.

  1. Several homes were destroyed.
  2. Part of the central police station was destroyed.

A heavy civilian toll due to stray bullets

The danger doesn't come only from the explosions. According to sources gathered by Alwihda Info , the surrounding chaos caused a silent tragedy between Friday and Sunday. Projectiles of various calibers crossing the border caused:

  1. 8 deaths among the Chadian population.
  2. Around ten people were injured and are currently receiving treatment.

Deadly clashes at the border

Tensions reached a peak on Saturday around 3:30 p.m. A violent clash erupted at the Ouaddi outpost on the front line between national forces and fighters from Sudan. This direct combat resulted in the deaths of six Chadian soldiers .

Contextual note: This series of incidents underlines the porous nature of the border and the direct impact of the Sudanese conflict on the security of civilians and Chadian defense forces in the region.
