Tanzania's deputy foreign minister says the killing of seven Tanzanian peacekeepers in Sudan's western region of Darfur is "shocking to Tanzania." Mahadhi Juma Maalim said Sunday that Tanzanian officials were yet to get full details of the ambush Saturday in which 17 others were also wounded in the deadliest single attack on international peacekeepers in Sudan. He said the assault on the joint African Union-United Nations peacekeepers was by a large group of men with machine guns. Maalim said the government was studying the situation in Darfur and would notify families of the slain soldiers, according to a report of the Associated Press.
