UN, NGOs to pull out staff from 3 east Chad towns

Dec 4 2006 Reuters report via ST Dec 5 - excerpt:
"Because of the continuing deterioration of the security situation, there was a U.N. system-wide decision that we would relocate all international and local staff from Guereda, Iriba and Bahai," Helene Caux of the U.N. refugee agency UNHCR told Reuters by phone.

She said more than 200 U.N. and NGO relief personnel would be moved over the next few days, by air or road.
