More than 1,000 volunteer fighters from Sudan's Popular Defense Forces rallied in Khartoum on Saturday vowing to treat any U.N. force in Darfur as an invading army that would be in a state of war with Sudan.
The volunteers, from Sudan's official PDF militia, danced to nationalistic folk music and chanted "God is Greatest." Some wore masks over their faces, while others wore military-style fatigues.
"We consider any army that enters Sudan as an invading army, even if the order was from the
United Nations. "Any country that takes part in this invasion force will enter into a state of war with Sudan."
The rally was the latest challenge to international calls for Sudanese President Omar Hassan al-Bashir to accept a U.N. resolution to deploy more than 20,000 U.N. peacekeeping troops in Darfur, where political and ethnic violence has flared since 2003.
