A monk blesses members of a 52-member team of Cambodian deminers who left Wednesday for Sudan, where they will offer their services as part of a multinational UN peacekeeping force for one year. The team was the country's fourth since 2006 to travel to Sudan. Chan Dararith, deputy director of human resources for the Royal Cambodian Armed Forces, said that so far Cambodia had sent a total of 468 deminers to Sudan. The new team will relieve 139 deminers, who will return Friday from their one-year tour of duty in the northeast African nation.
