Juba/Nairobi, Jumada I 2, 1436, Feb 21, 2015, SPA -- Gunmen in South Sudan have abducted at least 89 boys, the UN children's agency UNICEF said on Saturday. The agency said it was suspected that the boys - all above the age of 13 - were to be used as child soldiers in fighting between government troops and rebels. The boys are reported to have been taken from a camp for displaced people in the city of Malakal. A UNHCR official in South Sudan, Jonathan Veitch, called for the boys to be set free immediately. --SPA 20:37 LOCAL TIME 17:37 GMT www.spa.gov.sa/w
