Chad: Fear of fresh rebel attack

Ahmat should be studying for his high school exams but the fear of more fighting is uppermost in his mind nearly a week after pro-government forces repelled a rebel assault on the Chadian capital. "That day for me was 'black Thursday'," he said, referring to the fighting that rocked N'Djamena last week as rebels trying to overthrow Chad's President Idriss Deby Itno battled with pro-government forces in and around the city. Residents fear a fresh outbreak of fighting is inevitable, despite the return of calm to N'Djamena amid patrols by the state army.
