57 dead in Southern Sudan violence

This is the CNN story on it

".......The SPLA killed 57 of Tang's forces, including three major generals and a number of brigadier generals, according to the statement. In addition, one major general and other brigadier generals were captured, the statement said........"

Whole lotta' rank for one little raid.

The BBC's version

Interesting how both are worded and the slight difference in wording.
