The battle occurred just months after serious Chad-Sudan tensions ended with the signing of the Tripoli Agreement. Déby broke off relations with the government of Sudan as a result, expelling its diplomats and threatened to stop sheltering thousands of Sudanese refugees from the Darfur region.[2] The Muslim-controlled government of Sudan has also been documented by the United Nations to have engaged in mass murder of approximately 100,000 non-Arab civilians in Darfur in the period 2003–2006.[3] The battleThe rebels attempted to seize the National Assembly building, but the assault was easily repulsed by the much more heavily armed Chadian government forces. At least 400 people, including 370 rebels, 30 government forces and some civilians, were killed in the fighting. 271 rebels were captured and paraded through the Place d'Independance the next day. ReactionsChadPresident Déby blamed the attack on the government of neighboring Sudan, claiming that many of the attackers were either Sudanese backed by their government or residents of Chad conscripted by the Sudanese. Subsequently, he threatened to expel 200,000 Sudanese refugees sheltering in the east of the country after repeating accusations that Sudan supports rebels who launched a new offensive to oust him. Déby backed away from this threat on 17 April 2006.[4] Déby repeatedly has accused Sudan of hiring mercenaries to overthrow his government. Sudan has denied the accusation, and in turn has accused Chad of supporting fighters in its volatile Darfur region, where Arab militias and African rebels have fought for nearly three years. Déby claimed that the rebel attack was designed to encourage a constitutional vacuum leading to civil war, by disrupting the forthcoming May 3 presidential election, an election in which President Déby, who had been Chad's leader for sixteen years, successfully ran for a third term.[5] Déby dismissed the rebels as "petty mercenaries" and described the attack as "amateurish", saying that he was "not going anywhere". According to Déby, on the morning of the rebel attack, he "knew they were coming", and he and his wife Hinda were "listening to the cannon fire" while "[taking] our breakfast of strong coffee and warm croissant."[6] OtherThe actions of the rebel forces were condemned by the United Nations Security Council. Secretary General Kofi Annan was quoted as saying he was "greatly troubled by the worsening security situation in Chad".[7] The Central African Republic closed off its border with Sudan on 14 April saying that the rebels had crossed into its territory on their way to N'Djamena.[8] References1. ^1 2 3 http://www.turkishpress.com/news.asp?id=118950 2. ^{{cite news | last=England | first=Andrew | title=Chad severs ties with Sudan | date=15 April 2006 | publisher=Financial Times| url=http://news.ft.com/cms/s/9d4087ea-cc1b-11da-a7bf-0000779e2340.html}} 3. ^[https://www.un.org/News/dh/sudan/com_inq_darfur.pdf Report of the International Commission of Inquiry on Darfur to the United Nations Secretary-General], International Commission of Inquiry, 18 September 2004 4. ^{{cite news | author=Various writers | date=17 April 2006 | publisher=Sudan Tribune | title= Chad reassures UN, no expulsion of Darfur refugees | url=http://www.sudantribune.com/article.php3?id_article=15106}} 5. ^{{cite news | last=Flynn | first=Daniel | title=Chad's leader accuses Sudan of waging war | date=18 April 2006 | publisher=The Scotsman | url=http://news.scotsman.com/international.cfm?id=588212006}} 6. ^Emily Wax, [https://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2006/05/01/AR2006050101503.html?nav=rss_world "New First Lady Captivates Chad"], The Washington Post, 2 May 2006, page A17. 7. ^{{cite news | author=Various writers | title=UN condemns rebel attack in Chad | date=14 April 2006 | publisher=The Age | url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/africa/4908836.stm}} 8. ^{{cite news | last=Lacey | first=Marc | title=After Battle in Capital, Chad Threatens to Expel Sudanese | date=15 April 2006 | publisher=New York Times | url=https://www.nytimes.com/2006/04/15/world/africa/15chad.html?_r=1&hp&ex=1145073600&en=59a6b0bdba8afcb1&ei=5094&partner=homepage&oref=slogin}} External links
