"Three people were killed Wednesday during a gun battle between supporters of rival rebel groups in a camp for displaced people in west Darfur, a UN spokesman said Thursday.

The clashes pitted backers of the Liberation and Justice Movement (LJM), an alliance of 10 rebel groups currently holding talks with Khartoum, against those of a hardline faction of the Sudan Liberation Army (SLA) led by Abdel Wahid Mohammed Nur, Martin Nesirky said."
