Chad rebels vow to resist if attacked by French

Chadian rebels said on Wednesday they would defend themselves if attacked by French troops or other foreign forces in Chad, and vowed to press ahead with their fight to topple President Idriss Déby Itno. They said they were still occupying positions ”around Ndjamena”, but declined to specify how far they were from the capital.
