Africa Battle Bv Brendan Rovle United Press International JOHANNESBURG, South Africa T ribal warriors with spears and c'"hs clashed Thursday in the Umbumbulu hills of eastern South Africa, leaving at least 30 dead and scores wounded on the battlefield. Riot police units sent in to separate the fighters fired tear gas and shotgun to disperse battling members of the Zulu and Pondo tribes. Truckloads of weapons, mainly spears and clubs, were confiscated and about 500 Pondos arrested, police said. Ujnbumbulu is a predominantly Zulu tribal area about 30 miles southwest of Durban in the eastern section of the country. In the past few years, thoasands of Pondo tribesmen moved into the region locking for work and land to settle on. The Zulus demand the Pondos leave the area because it lacks enough jobs and land to accommodate both tribes, which bear grudges going back more than a century. Witnesses said about 400 Pondos were arrested and driven to the nearby Isipingo police station. Police said hundreds of Pondo fighters attacked the home of a Kwa-zul- u homeland politician, Roy Mbongwe, and looted his liquor store before dawn. A tribal "impi, or regiment, of nearly 1,000 Zulu warriors with spears, battle clubs and homemade guns counterattacked and drove the d Pondos away after fierce clashes Police dispersed the warriors and riot squads were stationed in the area to discourage further violence. At least 75 tribesmen have been killed and scores wounded in clashes between the two groups since December.
