Sudan OKs UN Peacekeepers

After several rejected proposals the Sudanese government has agreed to a plan for a "hybrid" peacekeeping force consisting of UN and African Union troops. Khartoum has been very resistant to an international contingency, but at least they are allowing in some help. The region is in terrible shape, so hopefully an influx of manpower can prevent at least a few unnecessary deaths.
