The Sudanese military confirmed that it had found the body of a French soldier killed on the border with Chad.
France had said the soldier went missing after he and another member of its special forces were shot at by Sudanese troops after the two strayed into Sudan.
The two were part of a European peacekeeping force deployed in Chad and the neighboring Central African Republic to protect uprooted people and aid workers on the borders of Sudan’s Darfur region.
