Pagak offensive (original) (raw)
- The Pagak offensive was a major military operation by the South Sudanese government during the South Sudanese Civil War with the aim of capturing the strategic town of Pagak and the wider Maiwut County from Riek Machar's SPLM-IO rebels. Since the civil war's beginning, Pagak had served as headquarters and stronghold for the rebels, and its loss was believed to possibly greatly weaken the insurgency. A large part of the government forces that took part in the offensive are members of the SPLM-IO (Juba faction), a break-away group from Machar's movement that is loyal to First Vice President Taban Deng Gai. Though pro-government forces managed to capture Pagak on 6 August, their attempts to secure the surrounding areas proved unsuccessful. As result, the SPLA-held corridor between Mathiang and Pagak remained unsafe. (en)

Desde o início da guerra civil, Pagak serviu como quartel-general e reduto para os rebeldes, e acreditava-se que sua perda possivelmente enfraqueceria muito a insurgência. Grande parte das forças do governo que participaram da ofensiva são membros do Movimento Popular de Libertação do Sudão na Oposição (facção Juba), um grupo dissidente do movimento de Machar que é leal ao primeiro vice-presidente . Embora as forças pró-governo tenham conseguido capturar Pagak em 6 de agosto, suas tentativas de assegurar as áreas circundantes não tiveram sucesso. Como resultado, o corredor mantido pelas Forças Armadas do Sudão do Sul entre Mathiang e Pagak permaneceu inseguro. (pt)
