FRENCH TO INTERCEPT REBEL COLUMNS EN ROUTE TO CAPITAL
-------------- --------------
1. (SBU) French sources report two rebel truck columns
carrying ammunition and fuel from Abeche are en route to
N'Djamena and are expected to arrive imminently, according
to Embassy Paris. MFA contacts in Paris report the French
military plans to fire on the rebels before they reach the
city perimeter. Embassy Paris reports the French
Presidency expects the security situation to deteriorate
over the next 12-24 hours.
FIFTY-TWO MORE AMCITS TO EVACUATE FROM CHAD
--------------
2. (SBU) Embassy N'Djamena reports 19 Amcits are staged at
the airport, with an additional eight elsewhere in the city
requesting evacuation assistance. Additionally, 25 Amcits
in eastern and southern Chad plan to depart on their own by
February 7. The Task Force continues to field new welfare
and whereabouts calls. Approximately 125 Amcits intend to
remain in Chad.
REFUGEES CONTINUE TO ENTER CAMEROON
--------------
3. (SBU) Embassy Yaounde will send staff to assist over
100 local employees from Embassy N'Djamena who have fled
with their families to Kousseri. Embassy Cameroon is
preparing a Disaster Declaration, which would enable post
to support relief efforts for up to 50,000 refugees
believed to have entered Cameroon from Chad.
