France's military said on Thursday it had transported munitions to the Chadian government army, which repelled a rebel attack on the capital N'Djamena this month, Reuters reported. French media had reported that French forces flew tank shells from Libya to supply Chadian government tanks defending the presidential palace against a Feb. 2-3 rebel assault. "In the framework of the cooperation agreement it has with Chad, French forces participated in the transfer of munitions to the Chadian government army," Defence Ministry spokesman Laurent Teisseire told reporters.
