Libyan advance into Chad halted by French defenses
N'DJAMENA Chad Libyan troops and rebels pause their southward push after French forces establish strongpoints north of the capital. Information Minister Soumaila Mahamat says Oum Chalouba was bombed only on Saturday and Koro Toro remains under government control, with Habre seeking deeper French aid to counter the insurgency. France has about 700 paratroopers in Chad training Habre’s army and defending key positions while insisting its mission is training. Soumaila reports Habre pressed for direct French intervention during talks with adviser Penne in N'Djamena.
