Africa - Egypt

Southern Angola's Continuing war: Rebel activities in the Portuguese territory of southern Angola in the lower half of the African continent continue more and more and gather strength as they go. Infiltrating into the country through neighbouring Zambia, the guerilla activities and movements operating in the undergrowth and back woods of Angola are causing a giant headache to the countries officials. So, as one of their means of fighting of the guerrilla warefare, a tribe of local Africans have been engaged to seek out of control the enemy. The tribe is the Kamussaqueles, who walk their patrols of up to 70 kilometres a day. They hunt or fish for their food whilst on patrol and are armed with rifles and knives. They are mainly nomads and have an uncanny knowledge of the bush. They are an asset to the fighting force and often can seek out and capture a guerilla group by reading the tracks left behind.
