Sudan People's Liberation Army said a three month truce applies to southwestern Bahr el-Ghazal to allow food deliveries.

Deaf Mexicans Return Home After Captivity
Seventeen deaf Mexicans freed from a New York City apartment last year returned to Mexico City with mixed prospects. They described abuse by captors, many of whom were also deaf, and said they could not stay in the United States without help. Eighteen captors were convicted, ordered to repay millions, and 49 overall were allowed to stay after aiding prosecutors. Some arrivals faced unemployment concerns, while others awaited social assistance for three women without local relatives.
