A member of the African Union Mission in Sudan (AMIS) guards a ridge during an armoured personnel carrier (APC) weapons training some 20 km (12 miles) outside El Fasher, the administrative capital of north Darfur, November 8, 2007. Newly arrived troops from two extra battalions of Rwandan and Nigerian soldiers have recently arrived in Sudan's war-torn western region to boost the already 7,000 personnel on the ground ahead of a planned handover from AMIS to a joint African Union-United Nations Mission known as UNAMID consisting of 26,000 personnel at the end of 2007. The troops were undertaking weapons training as part of an APC training course before their deployment to mission groups sites across Darfur. REUTERS/Stuart Price/AMIS/Handout (SUDAN).
