Some 38 victims of the Gbinyiri conflict, mostly women and children, have fled back to the Sawla camp, only a few days after returning to their communities in Chenkyere in the Bole District.
The victims, who had been displaced by the clashes in the Sawla-Tuna-Kalba and Bole districts of the Savannah Region, said they received information about possible fresh attacks.
Information available to JoyNews indicates that the returnees described their sources in Bole as “very reliable,” prompting them to make a sharp U-turn back to camp late last night using a tricycle.
A man who had remained in hiding in the bush around Chenkyere also ran to the camp after hearing the news. He spoke to JoyNews on grounds of anonymity.
“I was hiding in the bush around Chenkyere when I received the information that the people would be attacking Chenkyere and the small villages around, so I decided to run here,” he said.
